Hearing this today i.e. on Monday, the court issued a notice to the ED and sought answers.

PM Modi in IIT Madras, says, "We will ensure India's welfare with speed..."
He had argued in the trial court of poor health, which did not work. During the hearing, the Enforcement Directorate had said that even though Sivakumar has given income tax, his property has not become untainted. This crime has deep roots and has damaged the economy. This matter should be dealt with strictly. Shivkumar is considered to be the troubleshooter of Congress in Karnataka.
Many times he has overcome the cloud of crisis in the state in the Congress. He also had an important role in the previous Congress-JDS coalition government. Following the arrest by the ED, there were massive protests by the Congress in his support in the state. The party is accusing the BJP of acting in revenge.
