CBI serve notice to Bengal Trinamool leader Abhishek Banerjee’s wife in coal smuggling case
Neither Abhishek nor Rujira present at their Kolkata residence when CBI came knocking
Dubai: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Sunday served a notice to Rujira Banerjee, wife of Abhishek Banerjee — Trinamool Congress (TMC) member of parliament and nephew of West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee — over reported discrepancies in Rujira’s bank account, which could be trailed to the coal smuggling case that is currently being probed by CBI.
Last month, the Enforcement Directorate had raided 12 office and residential premises across West Bengal of people who were connected to Anup Majhi, the prime accused in the coal smuggling case that is believed to have run into several billions of rupees. A Red Corner notice has already been issued by CBI against Majhi who is still at large.
