New Delhi: Senior Karnataka Congress leader D K Shivakumar appeared before at Enforcement Directorate (ED) for questioning in a money laundering case for the fourth time on Tuesday.
He arrived at the ED headquarters here around 11 am.
On Monday, September 2 Shivakumar’s questioning by the ED in a money laundering case started around 12 noon ended a little after 8 pm on Monday.
The former Karnataka cabinet minister’s statement was recorded during the last three occasions under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
While making his first appearance on August 30, after he arrived by air from Bengaluru, the MLA from the Kanakapura assembly seat had said he would cooperate with the ED in the probe.
“It is my duty (to appear)…. I have to respect the law. We are lawmakers and law-abiding citizens. They (ED) have summoned me…. I don’t know why they have called me under Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).”
“But, let me see, hear them. I am ready to face them (ED),” he had told reporters outside the ED office.
Shivakumar had to appear before the agency after the Karnataka High Court on Thursday dismissed his petition challenging the summons issued to him by the ED.
