The Supreme Court on Monday sought the response of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in a bail plea filed by Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Anubrata Mondal in connection with a cattle smuggling case.
According to the Enforcement Directorate (ED), Anubrata Mondal's bodyguard, Sehegal Hossain, used to accept money from smugglers in exchange for protection in providing security for the smooth movement of cattle towards the Indo-Bangladesh border.
Anubrata Mondal case: Earlier on Wednesday (August 24), a special CBI court judge alleged that he has received a letter threatening to implicate his family in drug cases if he did not grant bail to Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Anubrata Mondal.
A special CBI court in West Bengal's Asansol town has remanded TMC leader Anubrata Mondal to 4-day CBI custody in connection with a cattle smuggling case.
Anubrata Mondal news: However, the high court during the day recalled that order. She has passed the test and has a certificate to prove it. I am not well, the TMC leader told reporters while he was taken to a hospital for a medical check-up.
