The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is questioning NCP leader and Maharashtra minister Nawab Malik in connection with the money laundering case against Dawood Ibrahim and his aides.
The money laundering case was registered against Dawood by the NIA and ED registered an Enforcement Case Information Report.
Malik was picked up from his house at 7 am on Wednesday and he is being questioned since 8 am, reports Indian Express.
Security has been stepped up outside the ED office.
Nawab Malik has been repeatedly attacking central enforcement agencies, accusing them of harassing and intimidating opposition leaders at the behest of the BJP-led Union government.
Two weeks back, Malik had hit out at the Union government for trying to topple the state government and said the NCP, Congress and Shiv Sena will not only continue to govern Maharashtra but will also come to power at the Union by dislodging the BJP.
