New Delhi [India], April 15 (ANI): Calling businessman Robert Vadra "land mafia," Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Gaurav Bhatia on Tuesday said that a strong message has been sent out that nobody is above the law of the country.
This comes after businessman Robert Vadra was questioned for hours in connection to the Gurugram land case Enforcement Directorate.
"Land mafia Robert Vadra was summoned for interrogation by the Enforcement Directorate. This is related to the land scam that happened in Haryana, when the Congress was in power, and it is known as the Shikohpur land scam, where within 24 hours, misusing the powers of the Chief Minister, a license was given to a company controlled and owned by Robert Vadra," Bhatia said.
The BJP leader called the Gandhi family the most corrupt family in the world.
"Today, when he was summoned for interrogation, it says a lot about the power of the rule of law and a strong message has been sent out that nobody is above the law of the country, especially not the fake Gandhi family, which is the most corrupt family in the world," he added.
"I am not going to be intimidated by this government or any agency. I am going to answer all the questions," Vadra told ANI during his break.
He said that he submitted more than 20,000 documents to the agency in 2019, too, calling the summons "politically motivated."
"23,000 documents were submitted in 2019. The case that they are asking me about is a 20-year-old case. This is politically motivated. We abide by all the rules and regulations when we do any transaction. The ruling government always misuses the agency. They can ask me as many questions. I have nothing to hide. All is good," Vadra said.
According to official sources, this is Vadra's second summons in this case. He was previously summoned on April 8. (ANI)
