investigation at the office of ED (Enforcement Directorate) after the
organization made a solicitation in such manner.

legislators joined the Congress Party in
MP and now Enforcement Directorate is showing its desire to arrest me just
because my uncle is in the ruling party and seated as a CM”. Said Ratul Puri

for the case.

arrest him.”

appearing before the ED as and when called for. I appeared 22 times and

yesterday, I got to know they have reached my home and harassing my family
members," the counsel told the court.
