The case pertained to 29 January raid at Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren's Delhi residence during which ED seized Rs 36 lakh in cash and a BMW X7, which cost over Rs 1 crore.
ED has made 14 arrests in first case & dubbed JMM working president Hemant Soren's MLA representative as 'kingpin' in the other case involving ‘illegal’ stone mining in Sahibganj.
Soren was not at home when ED team had landed at his Delhi residence Monday. Soren has since written to ED to confirm his availability for questioning on 31 January.
This is the tenth summons issued to Soren in connection with alleged land scam case. Earlier on 22 Jan, Soren was asked to be available for questioning between Jan 27 & 31.
The order, issued after CM Soren skipped 7 ED summons, says information & documents in response to summons by central agencies must go through Dept of Cabinet Secretariat & Vigilance.
Premises of Sahibganj DC and DSP searched too. Eight people have been arrested in the case, including Hemant Soren’s MLA representative Pankaj Mishra, the 'kingpin' according to ED.
A party statement declares former IPS officer Arun Oraon as committee's convener, while other members include Shiv Pujan Pathak, Yogendra Pratap Singh, Ravinath Kishor & Sunita Singh.
Soren was interrogated for over nine hours by the ED on 17 November last year in connection with another money-laundering case linked to alleged illegal mining in the state.
