AP Minister Yanamala urges CBI to reinvestigate the Jagan's cases

Vijayawada, Nov 13: The Andhra Pradesh Finance Minister Yanamala Ramakrishnudu has urged the CBI to re-investigate the corruption and money laundering cases against YSR Congress president YS.Jaganmohan Reddy in the light of the revelations in the Paradise Papers.

While addressing the media here on Sunday, the Minister said that Paradise Papers speak volumes of the economic offenses allegedly committed by the Opposition leader.

The WikiLeaks and Panama Papers had pointed the finger at Mr.Jagan long ago, he said.



The Paradise Papers reveal fresh financial links in a CBI case against Mr. Jagan, the Minister said, adding, "At this juncture, it is appropriate that the Enforcement Directorate, the CBI, the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), the Finance Intelligence Unit (FIU) and the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) take cognisance of the Paradise Papers and investigate."

It was proven beyond doubt that Mr. Jagan was benefited due to the shell and offshore companies during his father YS Rajasekhara Reddy's tenure as Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh.
