The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Tuesday filed a chargesheet before a Delhi court against AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan in an alleged case of irregularities in the Delhi Waqf Board. The 110-page first supplementary chargesheet claimed Khan laundered money that was allegedly generated through corruption in the Delhi Waqf Board.
The ED's version of the chargesheet, the prosecution complaint named one Mariam Siddiqui, who was not arrested by the ED as an accused in the case. The court would likely take it up for consideration on November 4.
The ED said that there was enough evidence to prosecute Khan and others in the case under provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). Special judge Vishal Gogne, before whom his bail plea came up on Tuesday, posted the hearing on November 7.
ED detained Khan on 2 September after conducting searches at his Delhi's Okhla residence and charged him of being "evasive" with answers. The money laundering investigation against Khan stems from two FIRs, a case filed by the Central Bureau of Investigation against Khan on account of alleged irregularities in the Wakf Board and an alleged disproportionate assets case registered by the Delhi police anti-corruption branch.
