Thus, he appeared before the ED today at its office in Hyderabad. Reportedly, he is being questioned about his remuneration and commissions for the betting brand he endorsed.
While Prakash Raj was questioned for six hours, Vijay Deverakonda was interrogated for four hours. Rana’s questioning may last till late afternoon or evening, and more details will be revealed once he comes out of the interrogation. Meanwhile, actress Manchu Lakshmi has been asked to appear before the ED on August 13.
