ED attaches Himachal CM's farmhouse in alleged disproportionate assets case

New Delhi, Apr 3 (IBNS): The Enforcement Directorate (ED), on Monday, attached a Delhi (Meharuli) farmhouse worth Rs 27 crore in connection with its money laundering probe against Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh and others, media reports said.

The media quoted ED as saying that the farmhouse was purchased at Rs 6.61 crore by Delhi-based Maple Destinations and Dreambuild Pvt Ltd where the CM’s son, Vikramaditya Singh, is listed as one of the directors.

Recently, the CBI had filed a chargesheet against Himachal's Congress Chief Minister alleging that he accumulated disproportionate assets when he was a central minister during the UPA rule.

Meanwhile, the Delhi High Court, on Monday, did not agree to Singh's plea to quash the CBI case against him and adjourned the Disproportionate Assets case  to April 6.

The BJP has demanded that Virbhadra Singh be removed from his post while the Congress has claimed that there is no case against him and it was only a political vendetta, media reports said.
