Former Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) chief minister Farooq Abdullah was today (31 July) questioned by Enforcement Directorate (ED) sleuths at the agency’s office in Chandigarh over his alleged involvement in a money laundering case, reports The New Indian Express.
The money was meant for promoting the sport in J&K over the period of 2002 to 2011. All the accused are now facing charges of criminal conspiracy and criminal breach of trust under the Ranbir Penal Code, the criminal code applicable in J&K.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
