ED charges AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan in Delhi Waqf Board case – India TV

Waqf Board Scam: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Tuesday (October 29) filed a supplementary charge sheet (supplementary charge sheet) against Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Amanatullah Khan on charges of money laundering in a case of alleged irregularities in the Delhi Waqf Board. This case is related to the purchase of land in Okhla district for Rs 36 crore.

The 110-page supplementary charge sheet also names Maryam Siddiqui, who was not arrested by the ED, as an accused in the case. The court is likely to accept it for consideration on November 4.

The AAP MLA was arrested by the central agency on September 2 after the ED arrived at his home in the national capital to investigate a money laundering case related to financial irregularities at the Delhi Waqf Board. He was taken to the emergency room and later produced before a Delhi court.

Delhi Wakf Board Case

The probe into alleged irregularities in appointments at the Delhi Wakf Board is linked to a 2016 case registered by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). Khan, who headed the board at the time, is accused of making illegal appointments to the board that caused financial loss to the Delhi government and alleged personal gain. The ED subsequently launched a money-laundering probe, raiding premises linked to Khan last year and seizing incriminating physical and digital evidence.
