AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan arrested by ED

Punjab Newsline, New Delhi, September 2-
AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate on Monday, hours after the central agency reached his home for probe into the money laundering case related to financial irregularities in the Delhi Waqf Board.

The ED team arrived at his residence this morning for questioning, after which the AAP MLA claimed that the officials have come to "arrest" him.

Earlier today, Khan released a video statement after the ED reached his residence, and said that the only motive of the central agency is to arrest him and stop the work done by the Delhi government. He also alleged that the ED has filed "fake cases" against him.


"It is 7 AM right now. ED has come to my residence to arrest me in the name of a search warrant. My mother-in-law has been diagnosed with cancer. She had an operation four days ago. She is also at my house. I have written to ED and I have replied to every notice. Their only motive is to arrest me and stop our work. For the last two years, these people have been harassing me, and filing fake cases against me."
