The sources say Raut could be brought in for questioning in the case.
Raut was earlier summoned by the probe agency on July 20 which he skipped and informed through his lawyers that due to the ongoing Parliament session, he could appear only after August 7. He had recorded his statement once on July 1. The ED had attached Raut’s properties in Dadar and Alibag in the case.
The agency wants to question Sanjay Raut to know about his “business and other links” with Pravin Raut and Patkar and also about the property deals involving his wife.
After arresting Pravin Raut in February, the ED had said he appeared to be “acting as a front” or in collusion with some influential person(s).
