After Abhishek Banerjee is summoned for questioning on money laundering charges, CM Mamata slams BJP for agencies politically
The Enforcement Directorate on Saturday has summoned Trinamool Congress leader Abhishek Banerjee and his wife for questioning about money laundering charges in an alleged coal theft case on 6th September.
While his wife is summed for similar charges on 1 September under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), Abhishek is summoned to appear in front of the investigative official in Kolkata on 6 September.
ED had filed the case under criminal sections of the PMLA after carefully studying CBI or Central Bureau of Investigation FIR of November 2020. The FIR alleged several crores worth of coal pilferage scam related to the Eastern Coalfields mines in Kunustoria and Kajora areas in the Asansol district.
Several other officials of the Eastern Coalfields mines are summoned for questioning on the alleged coal pilferage scam on different dates of the same month.
