The enforcement directorate (ED) had on Monday attached a controversial plot of land (C-17, sector 6, Panchkula) which was allotted allegedly in contravention of law in 1982 to Associated Journals Limited ( AJL ), a trust owned by the not-for-profit organisation Young Indian, in which the Gandhis hold three-fourth of the equity shares.

The plot has been attached under section 5 of PMLA (Attachment of property involved in money-laundering) Act and further investigation is in the process, officials said.

According to the charge sheet, plot C-17 in Sector-6, Panchkula, was re-allotted to AJL, which publishes the National Herald newspaper, by violating rules and the then chief minister Hooda granted land against the advice of his officers. The CBI’s FIR said, AJL filed an appeal against Haryana Urban Development Authority’s (HUDA) decision before HUDA administrator which was dismissed
