ED to probe Sayoni Ghosh’s bank accounts in West Bengal school recruitment scam
Kolkata (IANS). The ED has asked actress-turned-politician Sayoni Ghosh to bring documents related to her bank accounts and properties for the second round of questioning on Wednesday in the West Bengal school recruitment case.
Sources said Ghosh has been asked to bring the documents of the family members as well.
The ED has not found any direct evidence against Sayoni Ghosh involved in the school recruitment case. The probe agency is probing whether the proceeds of the alleged scam were invested in any business or property by Ghosh or his family members.
The sources further said that expelled Youth Trinamool Congress leader Kuntal Ghosh is accused of investing the proceeds of the scam in properties and businesses.
Earlier, the ED had tracked the information of Kuntal Ghosh giving a loan of Rs 40 lakh to Tollywood actor Boney Sengupta to buy a vehicle.
Sengupta confessed this to the central agency and later returned the money to the ED.
Sources said that the ED wanted to find out whether Sayoni Ghosh was also involved in such cases.
On June 30, Sayoni Ghosh was questioned by the ED for 11 hours. According to agency sources, Sayoni Ghosh gave many contradictory answers to the questions.
