Mohammed Hamid, Sharma's authorized representative, has provided a statement to the ED as part of its chargesheet against Chhabria in a money laundering case. A special Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) court, overseeing the case, has acknowledged the chargesheet and issued summons to Chhabria and six other accused individuals. They are required to appear before the court on February 26. The ED's case is based on three FIRs filed against the accused, one of which involves Sharma's allegations of cheating.
