NEW DELHI: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Monday issued a fresh summons to Jharkhand chief minister Hemant Soren and asked him to record a statement between January 27 and 31.
The fresh summons comes days after a team of ED questioned the Jharkhand chief minister in connection with the Ranchi land scam case. The central agency had quizzed Soren on Satruday (January 20) for about seven hours at his official residence.
ED sources had said the team conducted a comprehensive but amicable interrogation of the CM, including questions about an allegedly “illegal transaction of a plot of land measuring 8.5 acres in the Bariyatu area of the city”.
After the Saturday questioning of the chief minister, TOI had learnt from sources that the agency could decide on questioning Soren further.
