New Delhi: On Thursday, Robert Vadra appeared before the Enforcement Directorate regarding a case of money laundering and said he will cooperate with investigative agencies until he is declared innocent. Before appearing at the ED office in central Delhi, Robert Vadra wrote on his Facebook post: "I have always maintained faith in the judiciary system of the country. I have always followed the summons and notices sent to me by the government offices.

"Till date I have appeared before the ED and cooperated with them for 11 times and have been questioned for over 70 hours. In future also I shall keep on cooperating them till the time my name is cleared from the false allegations," he said.

He also attached a picture of himself with that of first PM Jawaharlal Nahru, who is the great grandfather of his wife Priyanka Gandhi. In the morning, Vadra along with his wife Priyanka Gandhi, arrived at the ED office and went inside directly without speaking to the media persons. Vadra had appeared before the ED in February for the first time along with his wife.

The ED summons Vadra after claiming they had got new evidence in the money laundering case. The case relates to the ownership of 1.9 million pounds of overseas assets and undisclosed entities set up to evade tax. Earlier, the ED had confronted Vadra with the emails he exchanged with the relative of arms dealer Sanjay Bhandari and Sumit Chadha.
