The Delhi High Court today sought the response of a chartered accountant, accused in a money laundering case and allegedly having links with RJD chief Lalu Prasad's daughter Misha Bharti, on Enforcement Directorate's plea seeking cancellation of his bail.

Justice A K Pathak issued notice to CA Rajesh Agarwal on ED's plea seeking to set aside a trial court order granting him bail, saying he is allegedly involved in several money laundering matters.

Additional Solicitor General Sanjay Jain, appearing for the ED, argued that Agarwal was laundering money for various other persons.

He also told the court that the ED was probing a separate graft case regarding the alleged role of Misha Bharti, with whom Agarwal is suspected to have links.
