National Herald: Delhi HC rejects ED chargesheet, Sonia and Rahul get relief.

• Delhi Rouse Avenue Court rejected the ED's charge sheet in the National Herald money laundering case, granting relief to Sonia and Rahul Gandhi.
• The court stated the case, originating from a private complaint, lacked the "predicate offense" required under the PMLA for a money laundering charge.
• ED had accused Sonia and Rahul Gandhi of acquiring Associated Journals Ltd (AJL) assets worth ₹2,000 crore for ₹50 lakh via Young Indian Ltd.
• Congress welcomed the decision, calling it an end to politically motivated allegations; ED is expected to challenge the ruling.
• A new FIR filed by Delhi Police in November, based on ED's information, might allow the money laundering case to proceed, experts suggest.
