The Enforcement Directorate on Wednesday recorded the statement of former Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda in connection with the alleged Gurugram land scam case.

Mr. Hooda appeared before the agency at its Chandigarh office. The ED probe is based on an FIR registered by the CBI, alleging irregularities in the acquisition of 1,417 acres in Gurugram between 2009 and 2012.

The land was later released and development licences issued to real-estate firms, which had bought the plots from their owners at lower rates.
