Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi is named by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in a money laundering case linked to NRI businessman CC Thampi, marking the first mention of her in this context. Husband Robert Vadra, previously named in charge sheets, is accused of a "long and thick" relationship with Thampi, involving the purchase of land in Haryana. The case, tied to fugitive arms dealer Sanjay Bhandari, includes accusations of violating foreign exchange laws. British national Sumit Chadha and Thampi are implicated facilitators. The chargesheet reveals off-the-books cash transactions for Haryana land purchases. Vadra's connection to the London property purchase is noted, along with his alleged close relationship with Thampi. Thampi, arrested in January 2020, reportedly knew Vadra for over a decade and engaged HL Pahwa's real estate services from 2005 to 2008. Vadra and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra participated in land transactions, and the ED claims funds from Vadra were used to renovate a London property acquired by Sanjay Bhandari in 2009.
