Sonia Gandhi leaves the ED office after 2 hours of questioning

New Delhi: The Enforcement Directorate on Thursday recorded the statement of Congress president Sonia Gandhi for two hours in the National Herald money laundering case and ended the session for the day on her request as she is recovering from Covid, officials said.
Gandhi arrived at the ED headquarters located at Vidyut Lane flanking A P J Abdul Kalam Road in central Delhi a little after noon escorted by her Z+ category CRPF security cover.
Sources said the questioning started around 12.30 pm after completing some formalities like verification of summons and signature on the attendance sheet.
