Court Summons Robert Vadra in Money Laundering Probe over Gurugram Land Deal

The Rouse Avenue court has issued a notice to Robert Vadra and other accused individuals in a high-profile money laundering complaint, relating to a contentious land deal in Shikohpur village, Gurugram, Haryana. A hearing is set for August 28, where the accused will respond to allegations.

Special Judge Sushant Changotra issued the notice following submissions from the Enforcement Directorate (ED), which recently filed a detailed charge sheet. The court has ordered the ED to distribute copies of the charge sheet to all accused.

This case, described by the ED as a 'classic money laundering case,' involves the alleged use of crime proceeds to acquire properties. Key witness statements and questionable fund flows back the allegations against Vadra's firm, Sky Light Hospitality Pvt. Ltd., which reportedly purchased land using fraudulent declarations and avoided due stamp duty fees.
