00:00 Former J&K CM and National Conference leader Farooq Abdullah has been summoned once again
00:13 by the Enforcement Directorate or the ED in connection with an alleged cricket scam.
00:18 The 86-year-old politician is set to appear before the Enforcement Directorate in Srinagar
00:24 on Tuesday for questioning.
00:26 This comes after Abdullah had previously skipped the probe agency's summons on January 11,
00:32 adding a layer of anticipation to his appearance.
00:36 Abdullah is facing the heat of the federal agency's investigation into alleged irregularities
00:42 within the J&K Cricket Association or JKCA.
00:46 The Enforcement Directorate had formally charged the Member of Parliament who represents the
00:51 Srinagar Lok Sabha seat in the case back in 2022.
00:56 The Enforcement Directorate probe revolves around the misappropriation of funds from
01:01 the J&K Cricket Association or JKCA.
01:04 According to the ED, the case involves the unauthorised transfer of funds to various
01:10 personal bank accounts.
01:12 These accounts allegedly include those belonging to unrelated parties and JKCA office bearers.
01:19 Additionally, the investigation is looking into unexplained cash withdrawals from JKCA
01:25 bank accounts.
01:26 The Enforcement Directorate alleges that these financial transactions were part of a larger
01:31 scheme involving financial improprieties within the cricket association.
01:36 It's important to note that the roots of the Enforcement Directorate's probe can be traced
01:41 back to a 2018 charge sheet filed by the Central Bureau of Investigation or CBI against the
01:47 same accused, including Farooq Abdullah.
01:51 As the former J&K Chief Minister gears up to face questioning, the nation watches closely,
01:56 awaiting the developments in this high-profile cricket scam case.
