· India · Indian Express, Times of India, Hindustan Times
The Enforcement Directorate has summoned Amardeep Singh Grewal, the brother-in-law of Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, in connection with an ongoing criminal investigation. Grewal is associated with the Punjabi film industry and is listed as a director of East Sunshine Production Pvt. Ltd. The summons follows a Punjab and Haryana High Court directive ordering the CBI to probe allegations made by the agency against individuals linked to the Chief Minister's office. The agency previously sought a criminal case against the Chief Minister's Officer on Special Duty, Rajbir Singh Ghuman, and associates Nitin Gohal and Bir Devinder. Financial details and specific charges regarding the production company remain under investigation.
Why it matters
The summons escalates political friction in Punjab by drawing family members of the sitting Chief Minister directly into an expanding federal financial investigation.
