Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was questioned by the Enforcement Directorate at its Delhi headquarters on December 20 in a case linked to the 2016 Panama papers. The actress is accused of money laundering for her alleged involvement in an offshore entity/trust. Her mother and other family members are also likely to be interrogated for their alleged roles in the entity.
Aishwarya’s husband, Abhishek Bachchan, and father-in-law, Amitabh Bachchan, are already facing a probe in separate cases being investigated by the ED under the Foreign Exchange Management Act and the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.
