ED charge sheetagainst Vadra husband of Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra

PTI, NEW DELHI, NOVEMBER 20, 2025: The Enforcement Directorate has filed a chargesheet against businessman Robert Vadra, husband of Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, in a money laundering case linked to UK-based arms consultant Sanjay Bhandari, official sources said.

The prosecution complaint has been filed before a special Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) court here, they said.

This is the second money laundering chargesheet against Vadra. In July, he was chargesheeted by the ED in a money laundering case linked to alleged irregularities in a land deal in Haryana's Shikohpur. Vadra, 56, has been questioned by the ED in the Bhandari-linked case in the past.

There was no immediate response from Vadra or his legal team. Bhandari, whose extradition request has been turned down by a UK court, was declared a fugitive economic offender by a Delhi court in July.

The 63-year-old arms consultant fled to London in 2016, soon after the Income-Tax department raided him in Delhi. The ED filed a criminal case against Bhandari and others under the PMLA in February 2017, taking cognisance of the I-T department chargesheet filed against him under the anti-black money law of 2015.

The agency had earlier filed two chargesheets in his case, in 2020 and 2023, while also probing Bhandari's links with Vadra in relation to a house located in London.
