ED arrests AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan in money laundering case

New Delhi, Apr 19 (FN Bureau) Hours after the questioning, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Thursday arrested another Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader, Amanatullah Khan, in connection with a money laundering case linked to alleged irregularities in the Delhi Waqf Board. Party MLA Khan appeared before the central probe agency for questioning in a money laundering case today. Just before the arrest of the 50-year-old legislator from Okhla constituency, AAP MP Sanjay Singh alleged that the Modi-led BJP government is engaged in Operation Lotus and arresting leaders in false cases. In a social media post, Singh said, “The Modi government is fully engaged in Operation Lotus.

False cases are being registered against ministers and MLAs to arrest them.” “Preparations are being made by the ED to arrest Amanatullah Khan by fabricating a baseless case against him. The dictatorship will end soon. I am going to meet his family,” he said. After Khan’s arrest, AAP leader Atishi tweeted, “You (the BJP) can put every leader and worker of the Aam Aadmi Party in jail; the people of Delhi will still vote for the Aam Aadmi Party.” “No matter how much you scare us, we are not going to bow down; we are not going to be afraid! We will continue to fight strongly against your dictatorship,” she said. “
