Bengaluru: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) Monday questioned former Bangalore Rural MP DK Suresh, brother of deputy chief minister DK Shivakumar, for nearly seven hours in connection with a money laundering case involving Aishwarya Gowda . Emerging from ED's office around 6pm, Suresh told reporters that officials had sought details regarding Aishwarya, who is under investigation for duping individuals by allegedly misusing his name. "They asked me about the ongoing money laundering case involving Aishwarya and others. I clarified that Aishwarya falsely claimed to be my sister and misused my name. I had no financial dealings with her," Suresh said. "She collected money from people using my name. Except for once attending a Rajyotsava event she organised, I had no other association with her. I've already filed a police complaint against her," he added. He has been asked to appear again on July 7, Suresh said, adding he would fully cooperate. The former MP had been summoned by ED on June 19 but he requested a rescheduled appearance citing prior commitments. He arrived at the ED office around 11am Monday, escorted by police amid tight security. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Eat 1 Teaspoon Every Night, See What Happens A Week Later [Video] getfittoday Undo Meanwhile, ED announced that it had provisionally attached properties worth over Rs 3.9 crore belonging to Aishwarya under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.

An ED press release stated that the duo, along with others, allegedly lured victims by promising high returns on investments. They, however, failed to return the money or deliver the promised returns and reportedly issued threats when questioned — citing Aishwarya's purported connections with senior politicians.

Did we ever stop your or Pawan Kalyan garu's tours?" he asked, questioning why Z+ security protocols, which he said apply to all former Chief Ministers, were allegedly not followed during his June 18 visit from Tadepalli to Sattenapalli. This came after the Andhra Pradesh Police registered a case against Jagan, former MP YV Subba Reddy, former minister Vidadala Rajini and others following the death of Cheeli Singhaiah, a 53-year-old Dalit man from the Madiga said he was throwing flowers at Jagan's convoy when he fell and was run over.

The vehicles did not stop, and the man was rushed to hospital by the police, but was declared maintained that his convoy's route was shared in advance and the government was obligated to provide rope parties, pilot vehicles and bulletproof cars as per Z+ security norms. 'You (the government) assigned the driver, but I had to buy my own bulletproof car,' he said, accusing the Naidu government of shirking its responsibility."How can a government say it will only give security if it feels like it?" Jagan asked, questioning how a crowd-control failure could result in a fatality if protocols were indeed also alleged political vendetta behind the FIR.

He further claimed the deceased was a YSRCP supporter and announced Rs 10 lakh in aid for his family, which he said was arranged immediately.'Even when a supporter died of a heart attack during the same tour, we responded the same way.

Please change, at least now.'- EndsMust Watch IN THIS STORY#Andhra Pradesh
