Abhishek Banerjee Grilled by ED in Kolkata School Jobs Scam
TMC MP Abhishek Banerjee faces intense questioning by the Enforcement Directorate in Kolkata regarding the alleged cash-for-school-jobs scam. Get the latest on this high-profile political probe!
Kolkata is buzzing with the latest developments in the alleged cash-for-school-jobs scam, as Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Abhishek Banerjee appeared before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) for questioning.
Banerjee, a prominent political figure, spent time at the ED office in Kolkata as investigators delved deeper into the multi-crore teacher recruitment case. His name has surfaced in charge sheets filed by both the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the ED, indicating a significant connection to the ongoing probe.
This isn't the first time Banerjee has been in the hot seat recently. Just a day prior, he was extensively interrogated by the West Bengal CID concerning a separate matter: alleged forgery of TMC MLAs' signatures on documents related to the appointment of the Leader of Opposition in the State Assembly. The back-to-back interrogations highlight the intensifying scrutiny on various political matters in West Bengal.
The teacher recruitment scam, which involves allegations of large sums of money exchanged for school jobs, has been a contentious issue, drawing significant public and political attention. The ED's questioning of Banerjee marks another crucial step in unraveling the complexities of this high-profile case.
