DA case: Supplementary chargesheet filed against Virbhadra's son

New Delhi [India], July 21 (ANI): The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Saturday filed a supplementary chargesheet against former Himachal Pradesh chief minister Virbhadra Singh's son Vikramaditya in a disproportionate assets case.

The ED has named Virbhadra's son as an accused in the case.

The Patiala House Court has fixed July 24 as the date for the consideration of the chargesheet.

Earlier in February, the ED had filed a supplementary chargesheet against Virbhadra, his wife and others under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.

Besides Virbhadra and his wife, the others named in the ED chargesheet are Universal Apple Associate owner Chunni Lal Chauhan, Life Insurance Corporation agent Anand Chauhan and two other co-accused Prem Raj and Lawan Kumar Roach.

The probe agency charged Virbhadra, with projecting around Rs. 5 crore "proceeds of crime" as agricultural income in connivance with his wife and others, and investing it in purchasing LIC policies.

He had allegedly accumulated assets worth around Rs 6.03 crore which were disproportionate to his total income during his tenure as Union minister. (ANI)
