New Delhi [India], Jan 29 (ANI): Popular Front of India (PFI) Delhi president Muhammad Pervez Ahmad on Wednesday appeared before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) after a money trail was unearthed between the organisation and anti-CAA protest in Uttar Pradesh.
Rehab India Foundation (RIF) trustee Shahid Aboobakar also appeared before the economic offence watchdog after they were summoned for questioning in the matter.
Speaking to ANI, PFI advocate KC Nazeer said, "We are here (ED office) to seek time of two months. Our Chairman is suffering from cancer and he is unable to come due to health issues."
