Ranchi: Legislators of the ruling JMM-led coalition started gathering at Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren’s residence in Ranchi, ahead of his questioning by the Enforcement Directorate Wednesday.

ED officers are scheduled to visit the Chief Minister’s residence around 1pm to record Soren’s statement in a money laundering case linked to an alleged land scam.

The 48-year-old executive president of the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha ended the suspense over his whereabouts Tuesday, as he reached his official residence in Ranchi and chaired a meeting of his alliance MLAs.

The Chief Minister’s wife Kalpana Soren, who is not a legislator, was also present at the meeting.

The lawmakers expressed solidarity with the Hemant Soren government at the meeting, and also signed a letter of support without any name, as speculations are rife that the Chief Minister’s wife will be handed over the reins in the event of his arrest.

However, one JMM MLA who was conspicuous by her absence at the meeting was Sita Soren, widow of Durga Soren, the elder brother of the Chief Minister.

Sita Soren represents the Jama constituency in the assembly.

“A power tussle is evident within the family, but on the issue of any threat to the government, they are all united. The CM’s brother Basan Soren, also a legislator, has spoken in his favour, too,” an MLA, who requested anonymity, said.

In an email to the ED sent Sunday, Soren had alleged that its actions were “motivated by political agenda” to disrupt the state government’s functioning, and claimed that the insistence to record his statement again on or before January 31 “reeked of malice”.

The probe agency has seized Rs 36 lakh, an SUV and some “incriminating” documents during search operations at his house in Delhi Monday.

Soren is being questioned as part of a probe into a “huge racket of illegal change of ownership of land by the mafia” in Jharkhand, ED officials have said.

Meanwhile, prohibitory orders were clamped in key areas of Ranchi, and a three-member team has been formed to oversee the law and order situation in the Jharkhand capital.

According to an official release, the prohibitory orders under Section 144 of the CrPC are effective from 9am to 10pm within a radius of 100 metres at key locations, including the Chief Minister House, Raj Bhavan and the ED office at Doranda.

As part of the restrictions, demonstrations, rallies or meetings cannot be held in and around these areas.
