The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has issued a fresh summons to popular Tamil actor K. Srikanth in connection with a money laundering investigation linked to an alleged cocaine trafficking case.This marks the second time the ED has summoned Srikanth for questioning.
Srikanth, who along with fellow actor Krishna was earlier arrested and later granted bail in the drug case, had initially been summoned on October 28 for the probe but sought additional time through a letter submitted by his representatives.
Meanwhile, actor Krishna appeared for questioning and was interrogated for over seven hours by ED officials.
The case revolves around a cocaine trafficking network exposed following an FIR filed by Chennai Police in June 2025.
The probe has linked Srikanth and Krishna to the transactions under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). A former AIADMK functionary, T. Prasad, accused of supplying cocaine to Srikanth and others, was also arrested in connection with the case.
Srikanth’s repeated summons indicate the investigation is intensifying, with the ED seeking more details regarding financial dealings connected to the drug trafficking network.
The actor is expected to comply and appear for questioning in the coming days.
