Kolkata: Vinay Mishra, an accused in the illegal coal mining and cross-border cattle trade cases and “absconding” for several months, is believed to have left the country, CBI sources claimed on Sunday.
The agency has come across inputs that Vinay has gone to Vanuatu in Polynesia and may want to join the investigation virtually.
His lawyers, however, refused to comment on it. “We cannot comment on the matter. The Calcutta High Court had on April 22 passed an order and asked Vinay Mishra to appear before it on May 3.
