Kolkata, Nov 10 (TIWN): The role of Kamalkanta Ghosh, husband of Trinamool Congress strongman Anubrata Mondal’s sister, is currently under the scanner of Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with the agency’s ongoing probe on the multi- crore cattle smuggling scam in West Bengal.
The ED has summoned Ghosh to its headquarter at New Delhi on November 11 by 12 noon.
ED sources said that the decision to summon Ghosh for questioning was taken after the agency sleuths tracked the use of his signatures in the crucial documents related to a number of bank accounts that are currently under the scanner of the central agency in its probe on the cattle scam.
“Our sleuths have cross-checked such signatures with handwriting specimens of Ghosh and they matched. In most of these accounts held by various persons, who are either relatives or close associates of Anubrata Mondal, Ghosh’s signature was in the reference column. So, we will question him about his association and knowledge about transactions in the said bank accounts,” an ED official said.
