New Delhi (PTI): The Enforcement Directorate is soon expected to issue fresh summons to Tina Ambani, wife of Reliance Group chairman Anil Ambani, for questioning in a money laundering case after she failed to depose on her scheduled date, officials said on Tuesday.
Tina, 68, a former actor, was asked to depose by the federal agency here on Monday but she did not do so.
She will be called again soon as her statement is to be recorded under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), the officials said.
A response from the Reliance Group on these summons is awaited.
Anil Ambani was questioned by the ED once last year as part of these investigations linked to multiple Reliance Group companies and their bank loans.
It is understood that Tina has been called for questioning with regard to a money trail linked to the purchase of a luxury condominium in New York's Manhattan.
The ED had recently arrested former RCOM (Reliance Communication) president Punit Garg in this case.
The New York property was "fraudulently" sold in 2023 during the corporate insolvency resolution process (CIRP) of RCOM by Garg, the ED had claimed in a statement earlier.
It is understood that RCOM informed the stock exchange about this "fraudulent" sale in 2025.
"The sale proceeds of USD 8.3 million (about Rs 69.55 crore in 2023) were remitted from the USA under the guise of a sham investment arrangement with a Dubai-based entity controlled by a Pakistan-linked individual, without the knowledge or consent of the Resolution Professional (RP)," the agency has claimed.
The ED recently also constituted a special investigation team (SIT) to probe multiple cases of alleged bank fraud and linked financial irregularities against the Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group (ADAG) on the directions of the Supreme Court.
It has attached assets worth Rs 12,000 crore as part of this probe and has filed three complaints called ECIRs (Enforcement Case Information Reports) against Reliance Group companies.
