The ED has called for documents and the recording of statements of some company executives under provisions of the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA), the officers said. A deputy managing editor of the news company has deposed before the ED.
The probe is essentially looking at purported foreign direct investment (FDI) violations by the company, they said.
The I-T raid had come days after BBC released a two-part documentary against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the 2002 Gujarat riots. The Centre had banned the documentary titled, India: The Modi Question.
