Timblo, son, directors summoned by ED

156Panaji, Nov 19 (IANS) Goa-based mining baroness and Swiss Bank account holder Radha Timblo, her son Chetan and three other directors from mining firms operated by her have been summoned by the Enforcement Directorate (ED).

An ED official said Wednesday that Arvind Hodarkar, Gurudas Kanekar, Sanjay Alberto and Chetan have been summoned on varying days through the next seven days.

Radha Timblo’s name was revealed by the central government to the Supreme Court along with those of two other Indians who were operating Swiss bank accounts.

Radha Timblo was questioned by ED for several hours Tuesday, on the issue of under-invoicing of bills for iron ore exported by her company to China.

The under invoicing also found mention in the Justice M.B. Shah Commission report which exposed a Rs.35,000 crore illegal mining scam a few years back in Goa.
