Raj land case: Vadra, mother join ED probe

JAIPUR: Robert Vadra along with his mother Maureen Vadra reached the zonal office of Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Tuesday morning in Jaipur for questioning in connection with an alleged land scam case involving 275 acres land in the Kolayat sub-division of Bikaner district.

The ED is conducting initial inquiry into a money laundering case in the Bikaner land case. In the investigation so far, the role of Sky Light Company has surfaced.

Robert Vadra and his mother Maureen Vadra are partners in the firm.

This is the first appearance of Robert Vadra in the zonal office of ED.

In the Bikaner case, the agency had summoned Vadra thrice but he failed to appear.

The Rajasthan high court on January 21 directed partners of the firm to appear before ED on February 12. The high court, however, restrained the ED from arresting the partners. One of the officials of ED who didn’t want to be named said, “We are trying to find out whether Vadra knew the fact that the land his company purchased was bought on forged documents...”
