New Delhi (11/07/2022): The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has issued fresh summons to Congress interim president Sonia Gandhi to appear before it on July 21 in the National Herald case.
Official sources said that Sonia Gandhi has been asked to be deposed before the investigators at its headquarters here around 11 am on July 21.
The fresh summon was issued as Sonia Gandhi could not join the ED investigation in the case due to COVID-19.
The agency had earlier issued similar summons to Sonia Gandhi as she did not appear before the investigators on June 8 and then June 21 due to COVID-19.
The Congress leader had developed a mild fever on June 1 evening and was found COVID-19 positive upon testing the next morning.
The ED had on June 1 summoned Sonia Gandhi to appear before its investigators on June 8 in the case for the first time in connection with a money laundering case involving the National Herald.
The ED wants to record both Sonia Gandhi’s statements under criminal sections of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
The ED last month questioned Rahul Gandhi on several occasions in the case.
