Businessman Robert Vadra, who is the husband of Congress Wayanad Lok Sabha lawmaker Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, was questioned on Monday for nearly five hours by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in a money laundering case linked to UK-based arms dealer Sanjay Bhandari, official sources said.

Vadra, 56, arrived at the central Delhi office of the federal probe agency shortly after 11 am, accompanied by his wife, reported PTI. The questioning concluded shortly after 5 pm, with Vadra stepping out briefly during the lunch break.

His statement was recorded under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), according to sources. They indicated that Vadra may be summoned again, as he allegedly “failed” to provide satisfactory answers to certain questions regarding his financial connections with Bhandari and his family members.
