The central agency had issued summons to Varsha Raut earlier this week. Accordingly, she reached the ED office located at Ballard Estate in south Mumbai at 10.40 am. She was expected to be confronted with her husband Sanjay, who is currently in ED custody, and some other accused involved in the case, sources had said.
Police personnel had been deployed in large number outside the ED office.
Sanjay Raut, a Rajya Sabha member, was arrested by the ED in the case on August 1. A local court on Thursday sent him in further custody till August 8.
The ED had earlier told the court that Sanjay Raut and his family received "proceeds of crime" worth over Rs 1 crore generated out of alleged irregularities in the housing redevelopment project.
In April, the ED had provisionally attached assets worth over Rs 11.15 crore of Varsha Raut and two associates of Sanjay Raut as part of its probe.
