CBI: Asif Khan could be another Kunal Ghosh, vital to probe
- 5 years ago
Kolkata businessman Asif Khan, a former convenor of the Trinamool Congress' Uttar Pradesh unit, and Badal Bhattacharya, a close aide of Congress leader Somen Mitra, Monday appeared before the CBI for questioning in the multi-crore rupee Saradha scam.
Besides Bhattacharya and Khan, Prasanta Pramanik - the president of the Majhi & Dari Workers Union Dakshineswar - too reached the CBI office for questioning about alleged links with the scam.
Khan, whose house was raided by the CBI Aug 29, has alleged involvement of his own party leaders in the scam.
"Some of these leaders, who had to go to sleep without food, have now amassed assets worth Rs.500 crore to Rs.1,000 crore. I do not know who gave them the money or from where it was accumulated," Khan said earlier in the week.
With the CBI making steady headway in the case, the Trinamool has accused the agency of being "politically used".
