ED files charge sheet against Kashmiri separatist leader Shabir Shah's wife Bilquis

NEW DELHI: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has filed a chargesheet against Dr Bilquis Shah, wife of Kashmiri separatist leader Shabir Shah, in an alleged terror funding and money laundering case. Shah, who was arrested by ED in 2017, has been accused of receiving more than Rs 2 crore from LeT chief Hafiz Saeed and Pakistani intelligence agency ISI through hawala dealers in Delhi.

Last year in March, the ED had attached Shah’s properties located in Rawalpora, Srinagar being held in the name of his wife and daughters. A supplementary chargesheet was filed against his wife on Thursday in the special Patiala House court in Delhi.

A prosecution complaint (chargesheet) against Shabir Shah and his associate Aslam Wani was earlier filed in September 2017 where the agency had accused his wife Bilquis Shah for her role in money laundering.
