AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan is under scrutiny as the Enforcement Directorate (ED) alleges financial misconduct linked to unauthorized bank accounts used for collecting funds intended for Delhi riot victims.
In a supplementary charge sheet presented to a special PMLA court in Delhi, Khan and his second wife, Maryam Siddiqui, face serious accusations of financial mismanagement during Khan's leadership of the Delhi Waqf Board from 2016 to 2021.
The ED claims funds were withdrawn as cash and handed to Khan for personal gain, complicating his already tense legal situation. He and several associates are currently in judicial custody, awaiting a court hearing on November 4.
