The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has rejected Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee president D.K. Shivakumar’s request to extend the date of his appearance before the agency.
Notably, the ED had earlier summoned Shivakumar and his brother, Congress MP DK Suresh, to appear before it on October 7. “I had requested time to appear, which was denied. I asked for time as Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra is passing through Karnataka and there are my responsibilities,” he said.
DK Shivkumar also accused the government of misusing agencies to harass him after seeing the success of the Bharat Jodo Yatra. The Congress leader said he would discuss the summons with fellow party leaders and take a call on whether he should appear.
The ED had filed a charge sheet against Shivakumar and others in a money laundering case in May. Shivakumar is currently serving as the President of the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee.
