A pair of Ontario businessmen say they each loaned former Liberal MP Raj Grewal $200,000 before being invited to join a 2018 trip to India with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Brampton tire centre owner Andy Dhugga told an Ottawa court today he has known Grewal’s family for a long time, and Grewal asked him for the money in the summer of 2017, saying he needed to pay off a different loan.
