The judge is likely to decide on November 6 whether to take cognizance of the chargesheet filed by the central probe agency against Khan in the case. The ED filed a 110-page first supplementary chargesheet on October 29, claiming that Khan allegedly laundered money generated through corruption in the Delhi Waqf Board. The chargesheet names Maryam Siddiqui, who was not arrested by the ED, as an accused in the case. The central probe agency further claimed that there was enough evidence to prosecute Khan and others in the case registered under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
Khan’s bail plea is likely to be heard on November 7. The ED had arrested Khan under PMLA provisions on September 2 after conducting searches at his residence in Delhi’s Okhla area and claimed that he was “evasive” when questioned. The money laundering probe against Khan is linked to two FIRs – the Central Bureau of Investigation case regarding alleged irregularities in the Waqf Board and the disproportionate assets case registered by Delhi.
