Ahead of his appearance on Friday before the ED for questioning in a money laundering case, Robert Vadra, Congress President Rahul Gandhi's brother-in-law, extended International Women's Day greetings, saying that he was surrounded by "four strong women".

"Wishing all wonderful women, a Happy Women's Day! I am happy to be surrounded by four strong women, 'my mother (Maureen Vadra), my mother-in-law (Sonia Gandhi), my wife (Priyanka Gandhi) and my daughter (Miraya Vadra)'," the businessman said in a Facebook post earlier in the day.

"The keywords to describe them are 'hardworking, courageous, compassionate and determined.

"I will celebrate the day with them, once I am back from the ED interrogation... I have already deposed for 10 days for almost 64 hours, cooperating with the interrogations. I believe in truth and justice," he added.

Vadra has been questioned by the Enforcement Directorate officials in connection with the case related to his ownership of overseas assets in London.

The ED officials said that Vadra arrived at the agency's office at 10.40 a.m.

Vadra, husband of Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi, is on interim bail till March 19.

Vadra had also deposed before the ED twice in Jaipur in connection with another money-laundering case related to an alleged land scam in Bikaner. His mother Maureen, too, was questioned by the agency once during the same deposition.
