Bollywood star Aishwarya quizzed

Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was questioned by the Enforcement Directorate of India on Monday on forex violation allegations related to the Panama Papers, reports NDTV.

The probe agency recorded the 48-year-old actor’s statement in Delhi on allegations that she parked her money in a company based in the British Virgin Islands, sources said.

Aishwarya Rai, the daughter-in-law of megastar Amitabh Bachchan, had been summoned earlier too but had twice sought more time.

The Enforcement Directorate started investigating the allegations in 2017. It had issued notices to the Bachchan family asking them to explain their foreign remittances since 2004 under the Liberalised Remittance Scheme (LRS) of the Reserve Bank of India.

Sources said Aishwarya Rai has already submitted records on foreign payments she has received in the past 15 years.
