ED questions Jyotipriya Mallick on smuggling money in foreign countries

 

The Enforcement Directorate interrogated Jyotipriya Mallick, who was caught in the ration distribution scam case. A team of ED went to Presidency Jail on Wednesday afternoon. The ED officials were in possession of the court's permission. Based on that, the ED officials interrogated Jyotipriya for about four hours from noon to afternoon. Basically, the ED detectives questioned how the money of ration distribution corruption was transacted.

 


Whether Jyotipriya Mallick's money went abroad through Shankar Aadhya, what contact Jyotipriya or his acquaintances had with Shankar's organization was asked. ED said that Jyotipriya or Bakibur will be interrogated again in jail for the purpose of investigation.

It should be noted that the ED arrested Bakibur Rahman first in the ration corruption case. After that, the Central Investigation Agency arrested the state minister Jyotipriya Mallik. Shankar Adhya, the former chairman of Bongaon Municipality, was arrested on January 5. According to ED, Shankar was arrested based on the letter written by Jyotipriya. The central investigation agency claims that a huge amount of money was transacted between the two. However, Shankar dismissed the allegation earlier.

 

He claimed, "Jyotipriya Mallik never gave him even 100 rupees." However, according to the information that came out in the ED investigation, Shankar Adhya laundered black money or white money of ration corruption through forex company. His son's company was also traced in Dubai. ED claims that billions of rupees have been invested in that organization through ration corruption. To verify this information, the investigators went to jail and interrogated Jyotipriya on Wednesday. According to ED sources, Jyotipriya and even Bakibur can be interrogated again if necessary.
