ED's evidence mounts against DK Shivakumar in money-laundering case, even as Congress leader cries 'political vendetta'

Firstpost  

New Delhi: The arrest of the Congress’ troubleshooter in Karnataka DK Shivakumar was in the offing for some time. The ED case was filed on the basis of reports from Income Tax authorities who have alleged that Shivakumar and his four associates were involved in the alleged laundering of money and the four flats were used as hideouts to stash black money. Although Shivakumar had no evidence to back his claims, Income Tax authorities had suspected that illegal cash was used for investment in the real estate business in the state. In his statement before the Income Tax authorities, Hanumanthaiah had admitted that one of the four flats in the National Capital purchased by Sharma’s brother was frequently used to stash cash belonging to Shivakumar. The Income Tax Department also suspected Shivakumar had links with top Congress leaders who might have received cash amounts through his close aides and that some cash was also allegedly sent to Congress headquarters through a cash mule.
