NEW DELHI: A day after the CBI raided properties associated with RJD chief Lalu Prasad, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Saturday raided his daughter Misa Bharti's house in Delhi's Sainik Farms, reported agencies.
ED officials said they were conducting raids at two other locations as well, as of mid-morning Saturday.
The ED's raids come a day after Lalu accused the BJP of targeting him and his family members to exact "political vendetta".
Lalu Prasad Yadav held Prime Minister Modi and BJP president Amit Shah responsible for the raids conducted by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) at 12 locations across Patna, Delhi, Gurgaon. BJP has warned Lalu for these allegations.
The ED is investigating a 'benami' land deals and tax evasion case allegedly involving family members of Lalu. Income Tax (I-T) officials said they want to question Prasad's MP daughter and her husband Shailesh Kumar, but both have skipped I-T summons in the past.
Bharti and her husband allegedly have links with a firm -- Ms Mishail Packers and Printers Private Limited-- which is suspected to have entered into 'benami' deals for the purchase of a farm house in Delhi's Bijwasan area, reported PTI last month. A chartered accountant, Rajesh Kumar Agrawal, allegedly linked to Bharti and others, was arrested by the ED on May 22.
