The Enforcement Directorate on Thursday filed prosecution complaint against former Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh and five others, in a money laundering case.

Earlier in the day, the probe agency filed a supplementary charge sheet against Singh, his wife and others under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).

In January 22, the agency had filed a status report in connection with the case.

Singh had allegedly accumulated assets worth Rs 6.03 crore in his name and in the names of his family members, which were disproportionate to his known sources of income, during his tenure as the Union Steel Minister from 2009 to 2011.
