HYDERABAD: The Enforcement
Directorate has asked former chief minister and TDP chief N
Chandrababu Naidu to furnish details about their investments
and financial transactions, following a direction from Andhra
Pradesh High Court."The former chief minister and few others have been asked
to furnish documents as per the directions from the Andhra
Pradesh High Court. The sources of income are being probed,"
ED sources said.The ED is probing all angles like contravention of forex
laws and money laundering against Naidu and others, they said.The Andhra Pradesh High Court had on November 14 asked the
CBI and Enforcement Directorate to conduct an investigation
into the assets of the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) president.A bench comprising justices Ghulam Mohammed and Nooti
Ramamohan Rao gave these orders on a petition filed on October
17 by YSR Congress honorary President and Pulivendula MLA Y S
Vijaya.Vijaya is the wife of late Chief Minister Y S Rajasekhara
Reddy.Reacting to the development, Naidu had said, "She (Y S
Vijaya) filed the petition with a politically malicious
intention to defame me and damage my reputation and image in
the public eyes."It is also an attempt to divert attention from our fight
against the corruption of the Andhra Pradesh government and
the UPA government," he said.
