Former Cricketer Mohammad Azharuddin Summoned By ED In Money Laundering Case

Date:

Cricketer-turned-politician Mohammad Azharuddin was summoned by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in money laundering case linked to Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA).

Mohammad Azharuddin, the former president of the HCA, has been accused of misappropriating funds during his tenure. This is the first summons issued to the Congress leader, requiring him to appear before the ED on Thursday. The former India captain, however, didn’t appear in the office and sought time.

The case was filed against him for alleged misappropriation of ₹20 crore, allocated for the procurement of diesel generators, firefighting systems, and canopies for the Rajiv Gandhi Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad’s Uppal.

This is the first time the Congress leader has been summoned by ED, with instructions to appear before the agency to clarify his role in the financial transactions under scrutiny.
