On 12 February (Tuesday), Vadra was accompanied by his mother Maureen before the Enforcement Directorate ED in Jaipur.
In 2015, the ED registered a money laundering case and claimed that Skylight Hospitality acquired land in Kolayat village of Bikaner, which was reportedly meant for the rehabilitation of poor villagers in the region.
“As I always have adhered to rules and overall being a disciplined person, I have the ability to sustain any amount of questioning and having nothing to hide; I will answer every question with respect and dignity. This too shall pass and will make me stronger,” Vadra said on Facebook prior to the interrogation.
