 Former Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh on Monday appeared before the Enforcement Directorate in Mumbai on Monday.

Deshmukh, the Nationalist Congress Party leader, appeared for questioning in a money laundering and corruption case against him after skipping at least four summons by the agency.

Before arriving at the ED office, Deshmukh also shared a video message in which he stated that he has been cooperating with the probe.

On October 29, the Bombay High Court had refused to quash the ED summons against Deshmukh and directed him to appear before the agency.

The ED was probing Deshmukh's financial transactions as Maharashtra Home Minister after former Mumbai police commissioner Param Bir Singh's allegations of corruption against him.
