Former MP D K Suresh appeared before the Enforcement Directorate regarding a money laundering case involving Aishwarya Gowda, who allegedly used Suresh's name to defraud people. Suresh maintains his innocence, stating he was the one who initially lodged a complaint. He expressed readiness to cooperate with the ongoing investigation.

On Monday, former Member of Parliament D K Suresh appeared before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) for questioning related to a money laundering case. The case involves a woman named Aishwarya Gowda, who is accused of defrauding multiple individuals, official sources revealed.

Gowda, arrested in April, allegedly claimed connections with high-profile politicians to swindle people by offering them attractive returns. She purportedly used Suresh's name, posing as his sister, to enhance her credibility, according to ED statements.

Suresh, who has publicly distanced himself from the allegations, stated that he initiated the complaint against Gowda. He emphasized his readiness to fully cooperate with the investigation, a sentiment echoed by his brother, Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar.
