Kolkata Police ke DCP Shantanu Sinha Biswas Enforcement Directorate (ED) ke saamne extortion aur land-grabbing case mein pesh hue hain. Woh pehle ED ke multiple summons ignore kar chuke the.
Rediff.com ke mutabiq, Biswas jo pehle Kalighat Police Station ke officer-in-charge the aur former chief minister Mamata Banerjee ke kareebi maane jaate hain, aaj ED office pahunche.
ED summons ko ignore karne ka mamla
Biswas ne ED ke multiple summons ke bawajood pehle pesh nahi hue the. Bhaskar English ke mutabiq, unhe 28 April ko bhi pesh hone ke liye kaha gaya tha, jo West Bengal mein polling ke doosre phase se ek din pehle tha, lekin woh nahi aaye.

ED ki investigation ka scope
ED is case mein alleged land-grabbing aur extortion ke aaropon ki investigation kar rahi hai. Indian Express ke mutabiq, ED Shantanu Sinha Biswas aur Sona Pappu ke beech money trail ki bhi probe kar rahi hai.
ThePrint ke mutabiq, ED ne pehle Biswas ke khilaf lookout notice bhi jari kiya tha.
Hamaari Baat: ED ki karvahi aur police officers ki zimmedari
Seedha baat karein toh, jab koi police officer hi ED ke summons ko ignore kare, toh yeh ek serious mamla hai. Law enforcement agencies ko ek doosre ke saath cooperate karna chahiye. Biswas ka pehle summons ignore karna aur phir aana — yeh sawaal uthata hai ki kya woh investigation se bachne ki koshish kar rahe the. ED ka lookout notice jari karna bhi batata hai ki agency unhe seriously le rahi hai. Ab jab woh pesh ho gaye hain, toh investigation aage badhegi aur sach saamne aayega.
