The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Thursday filed a prosecution complaint against Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president D.K. Shivakumar and others in connection with an alleged money-laundering case.
The prosecution complaint has been filed under the various provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, following investigations into the case registered by the agency in September 2018 against Mr. Shivakumar, A. Hanumanthaiah, who worked at Karnataka Bhavan in Delhi, and others.
Responding to this, Mr. Shivakumar accused the ruling BJP of “using all political tools” against him. “Whoever is a political problem to them [BJP], they try to eliminate and make them surrender," the KPCC president said.
