Special court in Delhi summons Shivakumar, four others on July 1 in PMLA case

BENGALURU: A special court for elected representatives in Delhi has issued summons to KPCC president D K Shivakumar and four others to appear before it on July 1 in connection with the money laundering case registered by the Enforcement Directorate.

The summons have been issued after the central agency filed a chargesheet recently. The others who have been summoned are Sachin Narayan, Sunil Kumar Sharma, Anjaneya Hanumanthaiah and Rajendra.

The court will take up the matter after the vacations. The ED lawyers had argued for adding Section 120B of IPC to the charges citing Karnataka High Court judgments. The special court has now agreed to include it.
