In more trouble for RJD chief Lalu Yadav's daughter and MP Misa Bharti, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Tuesday attached Delhi farmhouse in connection with money laundering probe against her and her husband.

The ED has provisionally attached a farm house (26, Palam Farms, Bijwasan, New Delhi), of Misha Bharti and Shailesh Kumar, held in the name of Mishail Packers and Printers Pvt Ltd.
