The team arrived at around 2:45 p.m. at Vadra’s Sukhdev Vihar residence in Delhi, according to IT department sources.
The team would be questioning Vadra about his business.
By early Monday, the IT team had recorded Vadra’s statement for more than nine hours. The team is questioning Vadra as he was unable to join the investigation during the Covid pandemic.
Vadra is married to Sonia Gandhi’s daughter, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, who is Secretary General of Congress.
Vadra had described the IT department’s questioning on Monday as “vendetta policy” and said he would cooperate with any of the investigative agencies and the truth would prevail.
It is being investigated by the IT department in relation to benami properties.
In addition to the IT department, Vadra is also being investigated by the Execution direction under the provisions of Law on Prevention of Money Laundering (PMLA) in connection with allegations of money laundering in the purchase of a London-based property at 12, Bryanston Square, worth £ 1.9 million. It is alleged that such property is allegedly owned by Vadra.
He is currently on early bail.
