Congress leader and former Minister B Z Zameer Ahmed Khan on Friday appeared before the Enforcement Directorate officials in New Delhi for inquiry into his "properties."

Zameer, who appeared before the officials at the ED headquarter in Lok Nayak Bhavan in the Khan Market area, was inside the office for more than an hour.

Emerging out of the meeting, he told reporters, "Earlier the ED officials sought some details in connection with my properties. I have submitted all the documents. Since they asked me to appear before them personally, I appeared before them for clarification. I have replied to all their questions."

He further said the ED officials asked him about his properties, his new house in Bengaluru, investment in lands and his transport business.

While refusing to disclose further, he said he will be staying in Delhi for a few more days and if the ED officials asked him to appear again, he will attend the inquiry.

However, Zameer dismissed the speculation that the ED summoned him in connection with the IMA scam probe.

In the first week of August, the ED officials conducted search operations at properties connected to Zameer Khan including offices of National Travels, a firm he owns, and other properties linked to him.

The Congress MLA is stated to have had a purported property transaction with then MD of IMA Group Mansoor Khan.

The ED action is linked to its probe in the Rs 4,000-crore I-Monetary Advisor (IMA) alleged ponzi scam case, taking cognisance of a CBI FIR and a charge sheet. However, Zameer has been denying that he is facing a probe related to the IMA scam.
