I know how many MLAs you are trying to block and how many crores you offered,” he said. While the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has registered a money laundering case against Shivakumar for tax evasion, the Water Resources and Medical Education Minister said he is yet to receive any notices from the agency and is ready to cooperate with the authorities if he is summoned. “I was admitted to the hospital due to food poisoning. I am not a coward to run away. Does ED need a year to register a case? I haven’t got any notices. I am a law-abiding citizen and have always cooperated with authorities. I am ready to face any kind of consequence,” Shivakumar said. Source: ANI
