Mumbai : The Enforcement Directorate on Wednesday questioned Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader and Maharashtra Minister Nawab Malik in a money laundering case. Around 6 am, a team of ED officials visited Malik’s residence in Kurla.
After inspecting certain documents, he was reportedly taken away by the officials for questioning. The ED then questioned Malik, who has made a series of allegations against former Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) Mumbai head Sameer Wankhede and also the ED.
According to party officials, Malik is being interrogated over an alleged deal on a Kurla property 17 years ago. It was allegedly owned by close associates of mafia don Dawood Ibrahim. The issue was first highlighted by Leader of Opposition Devendra Fadnavis in November 2021.
Soon after Malik was taken away by the ED, NCP President Sharad Pawar, state President and Minister Jayant Patil, MP Supriya Sule, spokesperson Vidya Chavan, MLA Rohit Pawar, Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut and others slammed the ED for its “selective” targeting of Sena and NCP leaders.
