ED files case against Himachal CM Virbhadra Singh, wife
Simla, Nov 15 (IBNS): The Enforcement Directorate has registered a case against Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh and his wife Pratibha under Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), reports said.
The case against Virbhadra Singh, a former union minister and his wife, is related to the allegations of possession of disproportionate assets.
In June, the CBI initiated a preliminary inquiry against Virbhadra Singh and his family over allegations of corruption and acquiring assets disproportionate to their known sources of income during his tenure as the union steel minister.
The period of the probe primarily covers Virbhadra Singh’s term as Union Minister for Steel and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) between 2009 and 2012.
