Srinagar, Mar 25: PDP President and former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister  Mehbooba Mufti on Thursday appeared before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in Srinagar as her plea for staying  the Enforcement Directorate notice in alleged money laundering case was turned town by Delhi High Court two days back.

As reported already ED had summoned Mehbooba on March 15 in the case but she approached Delhi High court and pleaded for a stay on the summons, but the Delhi High Court did turned down her plea.

Later, she said in a letter to the ED that she was not in a position to appear on March 22 “as she has prior commitments that cannot be cancelled at such short notice”. However, Mehbooba said she was ready and willing to be questioned in Srinagar, “preferably at her residence or through a video conference from Srinagar”.
