As per a TOI report, The ED passed on a notice to Gaurav Arya asking him to appear before the agency prior to 31st August and present himself to Enforcement Directorate Assistant Director Rajiv Kumar at 11 am on August 31. Arya’s questioning is in connection to the case booked under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002.

The agency had on July 31 registered an Enforcement Case Information Report (ECIR) in the case after a First Information Report (FIR) was filed by KK Singh, the late actor’s father, against actor Rhea Chakraborty in Bihar on July 28. In his complaint, KK Singh had alleged that around Rs 15 crore was withdrawn from Sushant’s bank account in the last one year and transferred to “accounts that had no link with him”.
