Thread alert: CBI's probe into WB ponzi scheme scam - How a West Bengal police sub-inspector wrote letter to then CBI special director Rakesh Asthana seeking "enlightenment" on certain points of the probe!

Interrogating the interrogator - well almost!

People claiming to be investors in M/S Rose Valley, an alleged ponzi company under CBI probe, assembled outside a hotel in Kolkata on August 3, 2017 and ransacked it. The hotel was allegedly associated with the M/S Rose Valley and its manager filed a complaint in this regard....

....with the Ballygunge police station of Kolkata. The complaint was duly registered into an FIR and sub-inspector of the PS, M Rohaman was appointed investigating officer of the case

A simple case of ransacking and trespassing the private property one would reckon....but no...here SI Rohaman first called CBI's inspector Bratin Ghoshal to know about the case on October 27, 2017 who in turn told the SI, as claimed in the letter, that certain decisions were....

....with regard to investigation of the case were taken under Asthana's "direct guidance and direction." So SI Rohaman then wrote to then CBI special director Rakesh Asthana "enlighten" him some points of the case...and what are these points -

...and it has tarnished the image of ongoing investigation in the case. 4. Selective investigation is on...role some of the accused have not been scrutinised...5. Has CBI taken steps to freeze bank accounts of Rose Valley directors etc etc....the IO Rohaman said these were......

.....the worries of the investors and investors have submitted documents and other evidence to support their claim that their money was siphoned off...

CBI in its contempt petition before the SC ahd given example of Ballygunge case as well as many other FIRs and summons that it's officers received from West Bengal police as an interference in its probe.

Before the SC and*

The agency has told the SC that these FIRs and summons/notices/letters issued to its officers (see an earlier thread by the author on similar subject) are an impediment in its probe into the ponzi scam.

End of thread.
