IT sleuths question Jadeja regarding documents
The Income Tax (IT) sleuths on Thursday questioned cricketer Ajay Jadeja for hours on certain documents relating to property seized from his official, residential premises and bank lockers, IT sources said.
The questioning of Jadeja, who was accompanied by his brother Ajit Jadeja, began at 11:15 am and continued till late this evening, the sources said.
Jadeja is the first cricketer to be summoned by the IT after the authorities conducted nation-wide raids on cricketers, board officials and bookies on July 20.
He was confronted with documents seized from his premises about the property and real estate possessed by him, the sources said.
The IT Department opened his bank lockers on Wednesday and found some jewellery in a State Bank of India locker belonging to his mother. The locker was part of the 17 lockers sealed during a nation-wide swoop.
