NEW DELHI: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Wednesday told Delhi court that a prima facie case of money laundering has been established against Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi , among others, in connection with the National Herald case .
The central agency made this submission before special judge Vishal Gogne during its opening arguments on whether the court should take cognisance of the chargesheet it has filed in the matter.
The ED had launched its investigation in 2021 after a magistrate court took cognisance of a private complaint filed by BJP leader Subramanian Swamy on June 26, 2014. Swamy has long alleged financial irregularities in the acquisition of Associated Journals Ltd, the publisher of the now-defunct National Herald newspaper.
Judge Gogne, meanwhile, directed the ED to provide a copy of its chargesheet to Swamy, whose complaint triggered the current proceedings.
