The singer reached the ED’s office at 3pm and left around 6:30pm. Sources in the central money laundering investigation agency said it had asked Jazzy B about his earnings from foreign shows and selling his music and films. He has also shot many music videos in abroad, about which also he was questioned. The ED last interrogated him in 2014.

In the previous years, singers such as Miss Pooja, Diljit Dosanjh, and Gippy Grewal have come under the agency’s scanner. Jazzy’s transactions came on the radar in March 2014 after income tax raid on the homes and businesses of some singers and producers.
