Congress’s Shivakumar moved to Tihar after being discharged from hospital

New Delhi: Senior Congress leader DK Shivakumar was on Thursday sent to Tihar jail after he was discharged from the RML Hospital.

Shivakumar, arrested by the ED on September 3 in a money laundering case, was on Tuesday remanded in judicial custody for 14 days till October 1 by a Delhi court. Shivakumar was in the ED custody since his arrest.

Shivakumar, however, was admitted to Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital after the court directed the ED to take him for a check-up.

A Delhi court on Wednesday deferred the hearing on the bail plea of Karnataka Congress leader D K Shivakumar, arrested in a money laundering case.

Special judge Ajay Kumar Kuhar posted the matter for hearing on September 19 after the Enforcement Directorate sought an adjournment.

THE CASE

ED had in September last year registered the money laundering case against Shivakumar, Haumanthaiah, an employee at Karnataka Bhavan in New Delhi, and others.

The case was registered based on a charge sheet (prosecution complaint) filed by the Income Tax Department against them last year before a special court here on charges of alleged tax evasion and hawala transactions worth crores.
