The ED has filed a charge sheet against Vadra and ten others in a case involving the alleged purchase of 3.53 acres of land in Shikohpur village, Gurugram, through alleged fraudulent means. The investigating agency claims that the proceeds of crime were routed through multiple companies controlled by Vadra. As part of the investigation, the ED has already attached 43 properties linked to Vadra and his company, Sky Light Hospitality Pvt. Ltd., worth a total of 37.64 crore rupees.
The origins of the case trace back to a 2008 FIR filed by the Gurugram Police, which alleged that Vadra’s company had purchased land from Onkareshwar Properties Pvt. Ltd. for 7.5 crore rupees, allegedly using a false declaration. In 2012, the same parcel of land was sold to DLF Ltd., a leading real estate firm, for 58 crore rupees, raising concerns over the legality and nature of the transaction.
The development has sparked widespread attention and scrutiny, given Vadra's connections to the influential Gandhi family. The case has been closely monitored by both the public and the media, with many questioning the transparency and integrity of the land transactions. The ED's investigation aims to uncover the extent of the alleged fraudulent activities and the role of the various individuals and companies involved.
The court's decision to issue notices to Vadra and others is a significant step in the legal process, indicating that the authorities are taking the allegations seriously. The upcoming hearing on August 28 is expected to shed more light on the case and the potential consequences for those involved. The outcome of this case could have far-reaching implications for the real estate sector and the broader political landscape in India.
