Kolkata: Trinamool Congress Rajya Sabha member Kunal Ghosh — suspended from the party — was yesterday yet again grilled by the West Bengal Police for over four hours in connection with the multi-crore Saradha chit fund scam.
He would be subjected to a further round of quizzing today. However, another Trinamool MP, Somen Mitra, dubbed as “administrative vengeance” the series of interrogations faced by Ghosh since he lashed out against the Trinamool leadership on September 20.
Ghosh, who earlier headed Saradha’s media arm, drove straight to the Bidhannagar police commissionerate after landing in the city from Delhi Wednesday afternoon. The commissionerate is probing the scam, the biggest such scandal to hit the state.
Later, speaking to mediapersons outside the commissionerate, Ghosh quipped: “Everybody is seeing, hearing... and people are understanding what is to be understood”. To another query, Ghosh said he has written to party chief and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for withdrawal of the suspension slapped on him. IANS
