Breaking: ED Files Charge Sheet Against Sonia and Rahul Gandhi in Money Laundering Case | ABP NEWS

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has filed a charge sheet against seven individuals, including Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi, along with two companies, in a money laundering case linked to the acquisition of assets worth over ₹2,000 crore. The charge sheet alleges that a conspiracy was orchestrated to transfer the assets of Associated Journals Ltd. (AJL) to Young Indian, a company in which the Gandhis hold a majority stake. According to the charge sheet, Young Indian was registered as a non-profit entity but was accused of illegally acquiring 99% of AJL’s shares through a loan transaction. The loan, originally amounting to ₹90 crore, was allegedly transferred for just ₹50 lakh to Young Indian, enabling the company to take control of AJL’s massive assets. The ED also claims that this was a premeditated move, designed to benefit the Gandhi family. In response, the Congress party is organizing nationwide protests, accusing the ED of political misuse. The charge sheet, which also mentions other Congress leaders, has escalated tensions within the party. The next hearing in this case is set for April 25, when the court will further examine the matter.
