The ED officials subsequently handed over summons to her seeking her appearance before the agency on Monday (September 12) at 11 am at its office in Salt Lake area in Kolkata for questioning
in a money laundering case linked to an alleged coal pilferage case of West Bengal, the sources said. She is understood to have left the airport for her Kolkata home around 10:30 PM on
Sunday. Gambhir has not been questioned by the ED in this case till now. The CBI had earlier questioned her in the said case. The Calcutta High Court in August directed the ED to question
Gambhir at its regional office in Kolkata and not in Delhi and also not to take coercive steps against her till the next date of hearing. Gambhir had challenged an ED summon that asked her
to appear before it in Delhi on September 5 in connection with the alleged coal scam case and had sought direction from the court to the agency to allow her to appear before it in Kolkata,
where she claimed she resides. The ED has questioned Abhishek Banerjee, the nephew of West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and the national general general secretary of the Trinamool
Congress (TMC), and his wife Rujira in this case earlier.
