NEW DELHI, Nov 17:
The ED has issued fresh summons to RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav’s wife Rabri Devi and his son Tejashwi Yadav in connection with its money laundering probe into the railway hotels allotment corruption case of the UPA-I tenure, official sources said today.
They said that while Tejashwi has been summoned for questioning on November 20, his mother Rabri, a former Bihar chief minister, has been called on November 24.
While Tejashwi, a former Bihar deputy Chief Minister, was grilled last in this case on November 13 for the second time, Rabri had skipped six such Enforcement Directorate summonses in the past. The sources said that the two were required to be questioned at length in the case and hence the fresh dates summoning them was issued. The agency has registered a case against Lalu Prasad, his family members and others under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). (PTI)
