New Delhi: A court here on Wednesday sought the CBI and the ED’s response on two separate interim bail applications moved by accused Sehegal Hossain in connection with a corruption and money laundering case related to cattle smuggling in West Bengal.
Special judge Raghubir Singh of Rouse Avenue Court issued notice on Trinamool Congress (TMC) strongman Anubrata Mondal’s previous bodyguard’s applications to both the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and Enforcement Directorate (ED).
“Let notice of these bail applications be given to the respective IOs of the CBI and ED cases for November 2,” he said.
The CBI’s first information report alleges that the Trinamool Congress leader, along with Satish Kumar, who was then a BSF Commandant, other public servants and private persons, was involved in the multi-crore cattle smuggling racket. The ED then registered the money laundering case following an FIR by the CBI in Kolkata against Kumar.
