Earlier, Pandey had been summoned by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to appear before it in Delhi regarding the NSE co-location scam. Interestingly, the ED summon to Pandey came just two days after his retirement on June 30.
Narratives claim that the firm incorporated by Pandey was one of the IT companies responsible for undertaking security audits at the NSE between 2010 to 2015. This is when the co-location scam is believed to have occurred.
The audit firm is being accused of not flagging any irregularities which came to light at a later date. Pandey and his firm are claimed to be investigated for " deliberate omission and commission", accounts cited.
