On Monday morning, his sister Priyanka Gandhi reached his residence on Tughlaq Road. Here both will consult with their lawyer, after that Rahul will go for an investigation.

 

So far ED team has questioned Rahul for 30 hours in 3 days. Apart from Rahul, Sonia Gandhi, Suman Dubey, and Sam Pitroda are also accused in the National Herald case. Two of the accused Oscar Fernandes and Motilal Vora have passed away.

 

Earlier, Rahul was continuously questioned by the ED on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. While the ED officials seemed dissatisfied with their answers, Rahul Gandhi also had to say that now he seems to have to come here daily as the interrogation will go on for a long time.

 

So far only 50% of questions have been answered.

In 3 days of questioning Rahul Gandhi, only 50% of questions have been asked so far. According to sources, the ED officers appeared dissatisfied with their answers during interrogation. During interrogation, Rahul described Young India Limited as a company with no profit and no loss. ED officials asked to count the social works, which were done through this company.

 

ED's entry was done in 2015

 

ED's entry was made in this case in 2015. The ED had sent notices to Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi for questioning in the last week of May. However, earlier in April, ED also questioned two veteran Congress leaders Mallikarjun Kharge and Pawan Bansal.

 

Arun Vora denies Rahul's allegation of Motilal Vora's name

 

Motilal Vora's son Arun Vora reacted to Rahul Gandhi's statements during ED's interrogation. It is being said that during the interrogation in the National Herald case, Rahul Gandhi had taken the name of late party leader Motilal Vora in the transaction. According to Rahul Gandhi, all the transactions between AJL and Young India were handled by Motilal Vora.

 

In an interview, Arun Vora termed the allegations as baseless and said that he believes that Rahul Gandhi cannot make such allegations against his father. These are baseless allegations. The Congress leadership cannot be wrong and neither can Voraji.

 

What is the National Herald case?

 

BJP leader Subramanian Swamy filed a petition in Delhi's Patiala House Court in 2012 against Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, and Congress's Motilal Vora, Oscar Fernandez, Sam Pitroda, and Suman Dubey for cheating the loss-making National Herald newspaper. Was accused of grabbing through misappropriation.

 

According to the allegation, these Congress leaders formed an organization named Young Indian Limited, ie YIL, to take possession of the properties of the National Herald and through it illegally acquired Associated Journal Limited, ie AJL, which publishes the National Herald. Swamy had alleged that this was done to take over the building of Herald House at Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg, Delhi, worth Rs 2000 crore.
