Mah:Nagpur-based adv present before ED in money laundering case against Anil Deshmukh

Mumbai / Nagpur, Jun 28 (UNI) A Nagpur-based lawyer on Monday appeared before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) office in Mumbai in connection with a money laundering case against former Maharashtra minister Anil Deshmukh claiming that he has some important documents related to it, a senior police official said.
According to the official, the ED called advocate Tarun Parmar last week following his complaint to the central agency against Deshmukh and some other politicians, claiming that he knew about their involvement in the money laundering case and he even had some important documents to prove it.
Adv Parmar Monday reached Mumbai’s ED's office at around 1100 hours, carrying some documents with him, sources said.
Deshmukh was earlier asked to testify before the investigating officer at the ED's office on Saturday in this case. The case related to an alleged multi-crore extortion racket which unseated Mr Deshmukh from the post of state home minister.
The NCP leader, however, has denied any wrongdoing and sought a fresh date for appearance before the ED, following which the central agency asked him to appear for questioning this week.
