CBI Digs Up Scores of Properties Linked to Anubrata And Aides as Evidences Stack Up

Ajaw-dropping 121 properties owned by Anubrata Mondal or his relatives and close associates. Another 47 properties registered in the name of Mondal’s former bodyguard Saigal Hossain or his known associates.

That’s the staggering list of real estate that the CBI claims it has been able to put its fingers on while probing the Bengal cattle smuggling case. So far, that is.

The agency has already arrested the Trinamool Congress Birbhum district chief and his former bodyguard. It claims it is digging for more.

This is why the agency conducted fresh raids on Wednesday at multiple locations in Bolpur, Birbhum, in premises belonging to close aides of Mondal and seized documents and evidences.

While no clear estimate is so far available on the total area of these land plots or their present price in the market, their total valuation would run into hundreds of crores. ​

FRESH CBI RAIDS

With Anubrata Mondal completing his full term of 14 days in CBI custody and currently serving 14-day judicial custody in Asansol Jail, the agency claims it has fresh leads into how the proceeds of cattle smuggling, which allegedly run into hundreds or crores of rupees, have been channelised and laundered.
