PTI, NEW DELHI: The ED today questioned RJD chief Lalu Prasad’s son-in-law Rahul Yadav in connection with its money laundering probe in a case related to alleged corruption in the allotment of railway hotels, official sources said.
Rahul Yadav appeared before the investigating officer (IO) of the case at about 1 pm and his statement would be recorded under the anti-money law, the sources said.

The ED first summoned Rahul Yadavlast month after it allegedly detected “movement of funds” from him to his mother-in-law, Rabri Devi. The ED is already probing the role of Lalu Prasad’s eldest son-in-law Shailesh Kumar, who is married to Misa Bharti, in a separate money laundering case linked to the purchase of alleged tainted assets involving a firm, Ms Mishail Packers and Printers Pvt Ltd.
This firm is said to be linked to Misa, a Rajya Sabha MP of the RJD, and Shailesh Kumar. A charge sheet in the case has been filed before a court here.
