Jet Airways founder Naresh Goyal, wife quizzed for 2nd day by ED

Jet Airways founder Naresh Goyal and his wife Anita, were questioned for the second consecutive day on Thursday in connection with a money-laundering probe by the Enforcement Directorate (ED).

Goyal was questioned on Wednesday and taken to his south Mumbai residence where searches were conducted till the early hours of Thursday. He was again called on Thursday to record his statement. Accordingly, he and his wife reached ED’s Ballard Pier office in the afternoon and left around 10.30pm.

The agency has questioned the erstwhile Jet Airways chairman multiple times in the past, in connection with purported violations of provisions of the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA), relating to foreign direct investment (FDI) norms.
