On Thursday, the Delhi High Court declined to grant a stay on the summons issued by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Amanatullah Khan. The summons is part of the ongoing investigation into an alleged corruption case linked to the Delhi Waqf Board.

The case involving Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Amanatullah Khan, related to the Enforcement Directorate's summons in the alleged corruption case concerning the Delhi Waqf Board, has been adjourned by a Division Bench of Justices Rekha Palli and Rajnish Bhatnagar. The adjournment to February 7 was decided upon after it was conveyed that the senior counsel representing Khan is unavailable for today's proceedings.

The Court clarified that it has not issued notices regarding either the plea or the interim relief application filed by Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Amanatullah Khan. Khan has taken his challenge against the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) FIR and the Enforcement Directorate (ED) proceedings related to the alleged corruption case involving him to the High Court.

In addition to challenging the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) FIR and the Enforcement Directorate (ED) proceedings, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Amanatullah Khan has contested the validity of Section 50 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act. The money laundering case against him is connected to purported irregularities in the recruitment process of the Delhi Waqf Board. Allegations suggest that during Khan's tenure as the Chairman of the Waqf Board, he engaged in unlawful recruitment practices, violating established regulations.

Amanatullah Khan faced charges by the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB), leading to subsequent Enforcement Directorate (ED) proceedings. Khan argues that the actions against him constitute a "classic case of harassment and persecution."

Notably, he points out that even the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has asserted the absence of any monetary transactions. Khan contends that neither the predicate offence nor the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) case has identified any proceeds of crime in connection with the allegations against him.
