Last week, Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut had demanded the arrest Kirit Somaiya and his son for their alleged links to the multi-crore Punjab and Maharashtra Co-operative Bank fraud case. Kirit Somaiya, a former MP from Mumbai, has leveled corruption allegations against several leaders of the Shiv Sena and other constituents of the ruling MVA coalition in Maharashtra.

Raut had alleged that Neil Somaiya had links with Rakesh Wadhawan, an accused in the PMC bank fraud. Denying allegations, Kirit Somaiya had said that he was ready to face any investigation.
