New Delhi: You may call it as ‘Hate Or Fate Politics’, Rahul Gandhi is said to face ED fifth time as the agency summons. He was questioned for the fourth day on Monday by the ED in connection with the National Herald case. He had earlier been called on Friday but had sought exemption following which he was called on Monday.
Sources said Rahul arrived at the ED office around 11am and was questioned till late in the evening. while the agency believes it may need to summon Rahul again on Tuesday, the Congress MP has been requesting the agency to finish the interrogations as early as possible as he needs to take care of his mother Sonia, who is suffering from Covid-19 infection. Sonia, too, has been called for questioning by the agency on June 23.
It is said Rahul is being questioned about the ownership of Young Indian (YI) by the Gandhi family and its shareholding in Associate Journals Limited (AJL), the company that runs the National Herald newspaper. He is being questioned about the circumstances under which AJL was acquired by Young Indian in 2010 for a ‘pittance’ making it in turn the owner of all assets owned by the National Herald newspaper.
