Sanjay Raut has also tweeted on the action of ED. He wrote, ‘Asatyamev Jayate!!’ At the same time, the statement of BJP leader Kirit Somaiya has also come on this. He said that Sanjay Raut had told the ED that he had returned a check of Rs 55 lakh to Praveen Raut. Praveen is in jail now, the question is, was Sanjay Raut his business partner? I had raised the demand of ED to probe the role of Sanjay Raut in this case.
