India has sought Swiss help in investigations into bank accounts allegedly held by Congress leader Preneet Kaur and her son Raninder Singh.
The Swiss tax department had disclosed their names in Switzerland government’s federal gazette, mentioning only their nationality and dates of birth.
Meanwhile, TheFederal Tax Administration (FTA) of Switzerland has asked Kaur and Singh to file an appeal within ten days for "exercise of the right to be heard".
Earlier, Kaur’s name had surfaced in the leaked HSBC list, an allegation which she has denied.
Kaur had also said that she was not shown any document which might indicate having a foreign bank account or a trust.
The Swiss gazette has published names of several Indians and other foreign nationals in the wake of growing global pressure on Switzerland to crack down on its famed banking secrecy practices amid suspicion on these accounts being used to park illicit wealth.
As a part of its bilateral treaty for administrative assistance and exchange of information with Switzerland, India has sought details about numerous individuals and companies from the nation as part of its crackdown against suspectedblack money stashed in Swiss banks.
