Senior counsel Abhishek Manu Singhvi, representing the senior Congress leader, began his rebuttal after Additional Solicitor General SV Raju for ED on July 3 concluded his arguments on the point of cognisance of the chargesheet filed in the case.

“This is truly a strange case. More than strange. Unprecedented. This is an alleged case of money laundering, without any property, without use or projection of property. There was not an inch of property moved from Associated Journals Limited (AJL) to Young Indian. No Congress leader gets any property or money. Yet this is called money laundering," Singhvi argued.
