Huge relief for DK Shivakumar as SC quashes money-laundering case against him
New Delhi/IBNS/UNI: The Supreme Court on Tuesday quashed a 2018 money-laundering case against Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar being probed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED).
The division bench of the apex court passed the order against the August 2019 Karnataka High Court judgement in August 2019.
The matter pertains to a money laundering case registered against Shivakumar and his associates after approximately Rs. 7 crore of cash was seized during Income Tax raids in 2017 from the Congress leader's premises in Delhi.
After days of interrogation, Shivakumar was arrested by ED in September 2019.
The Delhi High Court granted bail to Shivakumar in October 2019, which was later upheld by the Supreme Court.
