New Delhi, Apr 20 (IBNS) : The Enforcement Directorate on Thursday grilled Virbhadra Singh in connection with a money laundering case as the Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister appeared before the agency on its summons, reports said.

The veteran Congress leader's  wife  wife Pratibha and son Vikramaditya have already been questioned by the ED.
 
Assembly elections are scheduled to be held in Himachal Pradesh in the second half of  2017.
 
Going ahead with a parallel investigation, the  Central Bureau of Investigation has  filed a charge-sheet against  Singh, his wife and others, allegedly for amassing assets disproportionate to their known sources of income.
 
The Chief Minister had pleaded before the Delhi High Court to quash the CBI case against him. 

Earlier this month, the Enforcement Directorate attached a south Delhi farmhouse with a market value of Rs. 27 crore under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
