A division bench of Justices SS Shinde and Manish Pitale were hearing a petition filed by Nationalist Congress Party leader Eknath Khadse, seeking to quash an Enforcement Directorate complaint registered against him in an alleged land grabbing case.
In an Enforcement Case Information Report filed against the NCP leader, his wife Mandakini Khadse and son-in-law Girish Choudhari in October 2020, the investigation agency alleged that Khadse had misused his position as the revenue minister in 2016 to buy a land at a lower price, causing a loss of Rs 62 crore to the public exchequer, PTI reported.
