Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren was quizzed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) officials at his official residence in Ranchi for over eight hours in connection with the alleged land scam case.
The ED had earlier issued seven notices on the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha leader for questioning, however, he skipped all of them. Following the eighth summons, he finally agreed to record his statement.
Altogether, seven officials of the ED reached Mr. Soren’s residence at 1 p.m. and questioned him till 8.30 p.m. Of the seven officials, three came from Delhi. When the ED officials were questioning him, JMM workers turned up outside the house and protested against the Central agency.
