Earlier in the day, Jharkhand chief minister Hemant Soren registered a FIR against the ED officials at a SC/ST police station in Ranchi over the searches at his Delhi residence. The ED seized one BMW car and ₹36 lakh in cash from Soren’s residence.
This morning, the ED reached the residence of Hemant Soren for questioning him in connection with the money laundering case. The questioning comes a day after high-voltage political drama in the state as the Opposition BJP declared Hemant Soren as “missing” and alleged that he is running away from the federal agency.
The ED is questioning Hemant Soren at the moment and in case the Jharkhand CM is arrested, his wife Kalpana Soren is the frontrunner for the post of chief minister.
“You can see how the Central Government and BJP are hatching a conspiracy to destabilize & topple governments and form their own government in non-BJP ruled states. So, the party is prepared to face and tackle all conspiracies. But no such situation will arise as all the MLAs in the alliance are united. Hemant Soren will be the CM…We are hearing it from the media,” JMM MP Mahua Maji said on the speculations of his arrest.
Soren is allegedly involved in cases linked to benami proprietors and illegal mining.
Sources said that a team of ED officials has been questioning Soren at his official residence for over six hours. There is hectic activity in front of Soren’s residence, as the ED officials are questioning him, in connection with a huge racket of illegal change of ownership of land by the mafia in Jharkhand.
