Rahul Gandhi was accompanied by his sister Priyanka.
Congress Leader Rahul Gandhi arrived at the Enforcement Directorate (ED) office in Delhi today amid high drama as his party workers staged demonstrations against his questioning in a money laundering case in connection with the National Herald newspaper.
Rahul Gandhi was accompanied by his sister and Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi.
Mr Gandhi and his counsel then went inside the ED office for the questioning, while Ms Gandhi came back.
Subsequently, top Congress leaders, including Adhir Ranjan Chaudhari, KC Venugopal, Deepender Hooda and Jairam Ramesh were detained and put on buses. They were then taken to various police stations in the national capital.
Congress workers who started the march from the party headquarters along with their party leaders were stopped by the police, which had put up barricades all around the ED office. They then sat on the streets and continued their protest.
Earlier, several party workers were detained this morning as they raised slogans in support of Rahul Gandhi at the party headquarters, where they all had gathered for the march.
Visuals from the Congress headquarters showed workers holding placards and balloons with 'Satymeva Jayate' written on them, and chanting "Rahul Zindabad."
The posters stating, "I am not Savarkar, I am Rahul Gandhi", "truth will prevail" were also seen outside Rahul Gandhi's residence in Delhi.
Police yesterday had denied permission to the Congress march and had deployed heavy security at Mr Gandhi's residence and at the ED office, citing a "law and order situation."
The party, however, decided to go ahead with the march. Randeep Surjewala earlier this morning announced that they would march peacefully towards the ED office and if they are stopped, they would court arrest.
The case pertains to the ED probe into the alleged financial irregularities between Young Indian and Associated Journals Ltd (AJL), which publishes the National Herald newspaper.
The agency registered a fresh case under the criminal provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) after a Delhi court took cognisance of a private criminal complaint filed by BJP MP Subramanian Swamy in 2013.
Rahul Gandhi's mother and Congress president Sonia Gandhi, who has also been summoned for questioning, will appear before the Enforcement Directorate on June 23.
Congress has maintained that the charges against its leaders are "fake and baseless", saying the summonses are part of the BJP's "vendetta politics".
