NEW DELHI, July 27: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Tuesday filed a Supplementary Prosecution Complaint against National Conference (NC) Farooq Abdullah and others in connection with the Jammu & Kashmir Cricket Association (JKCA) fund scam. Reacting to the development, Farooq Abdullah on Wednesday said that he will see the matter when the case comes to court.
The Supplementary Prosecution Complaint has been filed under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002 before the Special PMLA Court, Srinagar. The court has taken cognizance of the complaint and issued notices to Farooq Abdullah and others for an appearance on August 27.
On May 31, the ED grilled the NC chief for over three hours in the JKCA case. The former Chief Minister linked his questioning by ED with the forthcoming assembly elections in the union territory. The 84-year-old had previously recorded his statement in the case in 2019. (Agencies)
