New Delhi : ED has filed a fresh charge sheet, delving specifically into the role of British national and alleged middleman Christian Michel James and his few Indian associates, in connection with its money laundering probe in the Rs 3,600 crore VVIP chopper deal. The over 1,300 page prosecution complaint (ED’s equivalent for charge sheet) has been placed before a special Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) court here early this week and it has said that agency’s investigation into the case has found that Michel received Euro 30 million (about Rs 225 crore) from Ms AgustaWestland which was nothing but “kickbacks” paid by the firm to execute the 12 helicopter deal in favour of the firm in “guise of” of genuine transactions for performing multiple work contracts in the country.
