Mumbai: Owner of the IPL franchisee Royal Challengers Bangalore, Vijay Mallya has confirmed that the girl who was seen carrying documents outside the IPL office premises just before the Income Tax officials' visit on Thursday is his step daughter.
Mallya issued a clarification that his step daughter Laila Mehmood works for Lalit Modi. But he knows nothing about it and that the information given to I-T was given by his step daughter.
"My step daughter Laila Mahmood works for Lalit Modi. I have no knowledge whatsoever of her involvement in the Income Tax raid," Mallya said.
The income tax department, which is probing the Indian Premier League's financial transactions covering all the franchises amidst allegations of murky deals, is reported to have questioned Mallya's daughter who works for Modi.
The woman exiting Modi's plush office in Mumbai was caught on CCTV carrying what appeared to be a laptop and some documents. The IT authorities got into action and identified her.
