On August 2, 2025, the Rouse Avenue Court issued a notice to Robert Vadra and other accused in a money laundering case related to a land deal in Shikohpur village, Gurugram. The hearing is scheduled for August 28. The notice was issued during the pre-cognisance stage following the Enforcement Directorate’s (ED) submission of a charge sheet. Special Judge Sushant Changotra directed that copies of the charge sheet be provided to all proposed accused. The ED was represented by Special Public Prosecutor Naveen Kumar Matta, along with Mohd. Faizan and special counsel Zoheb Hossain via video conferencing.

During its July 24 submissions, the ED described the case as a clear instance of money laundering. It alleged that proceeds of crime were used to acquire immovable properties and that funds were layered and enjoyed. The agency stated it had provided evidence, including fund flows, property details, and witness statements. According to the ED, Skylight Hospitality, largely owned by Vadra, falsely claimed in the sale deed that ₹7.5 crore had been paid for 3 acres of land, when in fact the payment was delayed to avoid stamp duty. The land was later sold to DLF at a higher price. Witnesses corroborated that the transaction involved misrepresentation and procedural shortcuts, including a license being issued hastily.

Special counsel Hossain cited the statement of Satyanand Yajee, Director of Omkareshwar Properties, who allegedly helped in generating proceeds of crime. Hossain also noted that money laundering continued up to July 2025 and involved seven properties purchased using illicit funds. These properties were enjoyed until the ED’s provisional attachment. Invoking Section 70 of the PMLA, the ED argued that Vadra is vicariously liable since he held majority ownership in the companies involved. He also acted as director, beneficial, and actual owner. The July 17 complaint names 11 accused, including Vadra, Skylight Hospitality, Yajee, and Kewal Singh Virk. The ED has attached 43 properties worth ₹37.64 crore linked to Vadra and his companies.
