New Delhi: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has filed a fresh chargesheet against Congress MP Karti Chidambaram and some others in a money laundering case linked to alleged issuance of visas to some Chinese nationals in 2011, official sources said.
The prosecution complaint was filed on January 25 by the central agency before a special Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) court, which is yet to take cognisance of it, the sources said.
Apart from Karti Chidambaram, the son of senior Congress leader and former Union minister P Chidambaram, the ED has named his close associate S Bhaskararaman and some others in the chargesheet.
The court has listed the matter for hearing on March 16, the sources said.
Karti Chidambaram, 52, is a Lok Sabha MP from Sivaganga seat in Tamil Nadu and the agency has recorded his statement in the case a number of times.
