Rose Valley: TMC MP Sudip Bandyopadhyay arrives in Kolkata's CBI office

Kolkata, Jan 3 (IBNS): After being summoned by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), Trinamool Congress (TMC) Lok Sabha MP Sudip Bandyopadhyay on Tuesday morning attended the central probe agency's office at CGO Complex in Kolkata's Salt Lake area in connection with the ongoing probe into multi-crore Rose Valley chit fund scam, officials said.

According to reports, CBI earlier sent at least three notices to the TMC MP of North Kolkata Lok Sabha constituency, two out of which were avoided by the Trinamool leader.

"I am here today to know why the CBI has summoned me," Sudip Bandyopadhyay told the media here, while he was entering the Central probe agency's office in Kolkata at around 10:50 am.

According to sources, CBI will start interrogating him shortly.

Earlier on Friday (Dec 30), actor-turned-TMC Lok Sabha MP Tapas Pal was arrested by the CBI, after being grilled for nearly four hours.

Tapas Pal will be produced before a local court in Bhubaneswar at around 12:30 pm, as his three-day CBI custody term is ending on Tuesday. .

TMC leadershis, however, called the CBI actions against their MPs a vendetta politics of BJP-led NDA government in Centre.
