Enforcement Directorate(ED) is set to start interrogating Amit Agrawal from Sunday.

The prime question expected to be raised before Amit Agrawal is this-what has been the mode of his relationship with the CM Hemant Soren.

On Saturday, the PMLA court in Ranchi granted his  seven days police remand against 14- days remand sought by the ED.

Agrawal,a Kolkata based businessman, was arrested by the ED sleuths in Kolkata on Friday. He was brought to Ranchi and produced in the PMLA court.

Agrawal, who was allegedly connected with the CM Hemant Soren, was arrested in Rs 50 lakh cash handed over to Jharkhand High Court Lawyer Rajiv Kumar as bribe to shut the PILs he had filed on behalf of his client.

The PILs had sought CBI probe against CM Hemant Soren for the alleged irregularities in grant of mining leases and also on transactions of some shell companies purportedly operated by his family members and associates.
