New-Delhi: A Delhi Court on Tuesday refused to take cognizance of Enforcement Directorate’s money laundering complaint in the National Herald case allegedly involving Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi.

The court held that the prosecution complaint filed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) against the Gandhis was not maintainable in law, as it was not founded on an FIR relating to a scheduled offence under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).

The ED, in its chargesheet, had named Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, Suman Dubey, Sam Pitroda, Young Indian, Dotex Merchandise and Sunil Bhandari as the main accused in the case. It has alleged that assets worth over Rs 2,000 crore belonging to Associated Journals Limited (AJL) were wrongfully taken over.
