<p>Kalanidhi Maran, elder brother of former Telecom Minister Dayanidhi Maran, today submitted a set of financial documents to the Enforcement Directorate which is probing his alleged role in the Aircel-Maxis deal in the 2G spectrum allocation case.<br /><br /></p>.<p>The agency, according to sources, will now go through the documents submitted by both the brothers and may summon them for recording their statements and getting additional inputs on their role in the deal. Dayanidhi Maran had yesterday submitted a similar set of documents pertaining to personal transactions and investments and those dealing with other businesses to the agency.<br /><br />Both the brothers sent their representatives for submitting the documents.
