The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Saturday issued its seventh summons to Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren for questioning in connection with an alleged land scam case. With this notice, the ED has given Mr. Soren the last chance to record his statement in the land scam case.
The ED’s letter to Mr. Soren, which it stated should be treated as a summons, said that it was very important to record his statement in the land scam case, and therefore, if he wished, he could decide the place and time to record his statement within two days.
The Opposition BJP said that Mr. Soren was “running away like a fugitive”.
