Sudip Bandyopadhyay's arrest: TMC demonstrates at CBI offices in Kolkata, Bhubaneswar
After the completion of his six-day CBI custody term, Sudip Bandyopadhyay has been produced before a local court in Odisha's Khurdha.
The Central probe agency has appealed to the court to extend his CBI custody by eight more days for further interrogation.
TMC LS MP Sudip Bandyopadhyay was arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) recently in connection with Rose Valley financial scam.
After his arrest, the TMC leader was flown to Bhubaneswar.
TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee called the arrest a political vendetta of BJP-ruled Central government, as her party was leading protest against Centre's demonetisation move.
