Suspended Trinamool Congress MP Kunal Ghosh yesterday said he would not get justice unless all those involved in the Saradha scam are arrested, and called for replacing Mamata Banerjee as the West Bengal chief minister.
Ghosh, behind bars since November 2013 for his alleged complicity in the multi-billion rupee chit fund scam, has repeatedly alleged the involvement of his party leaders.
Yesterday he demanded that the party leaders must be questioned by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) which is probing the scandal.
“Those suspected of being involved in the scam should resign. They should face investigation. Till then, (Panchayat Minister) Subrata Mukherjee can function as the chief minister,” Ghosh said while coming out of a court.
The former media head of the Saradha group has repeatedly alleged the involvement of Banerjee in the scam. He has also called for joint interrogation of the Trinamool supremo along with Saradha chief and scam kingpin Sudipta Sen.
During the day, Ghosh urged the court of metropolitan magistrate Arvind Mishra not to start the trial until all those involved in the scam are arrested and the CBI completes its probe.
Ghosh pleaded before the court to defer the trial as a lot of “influential personalities” were involved and unless they are arrested, he will not get justice.
His comments come ahead of the appearance of Trinamool general secretary and former railways minister Mukul Roy before the CBI for questioning tomorrow.
Roy yesterday said he would appear for questioning today.
Roy has been visiting Delhi frequently following the CBI summons.
“Today I have returned to Kolkata and like I have reportedly said I will co-operate with the probe agency. I have been asked to appear before the CBI tomorrow, and I will appear before them on that day and participate in the probe,” Roy said.
The CBI has also arrested Rajya Sabha member Srinjoy Bose, state transport minister Madan Mitra and party leader and former police officer Rajat Majumdar among others in the case.
Ghosh also accused the police of discrimination, saying other “influential people” arrested in the case were enjoying undue benefits.
“If others are taken to the court in a police jeep, why should I be taken in a prison van? Why am I not allowed to talk on mobile like others,” Ghosh told reporters, referring to Madan Mitra who was taken to the court in a police jeep.
