CBI raids Bengal Trinamool MLA Tapas Saha's house in cash-for-jobs scam

Kolkata/UNI: Within four days of the Calcutta High Court order for a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) inquiry, a team of the probe agency Friday raided the house of Trinamool Congress legislator Tapas Saha in connection with the cash-for-jobs scandal in the education sector in West Bengal.

The CBI also raided the party office adjacent to Saha's house.

On Tuesday Judge Rajashekhar Mantha pronounced the order for the CBI probe and also ordered the immediate handover of the case to the central agency from the police.

Earlier three Trinamool Congress MLAs were arrested in connection with the scandal.
