A court in West Bengal’s Jalpaiguri district on Tuesday has sent a Trinamool Congress youth wing leader to 2-days of police custody after he surrendered before it in connection with a case of abetment to suicide of a couple 6 months ago.
Saikat Chatterjee, the ruling TMC youth wing’s Jalpaiguri unit president, was on Monday remanded to police custody for 2 days by the district and sessions court.
He stated that he surrendered before the judge of the sessions court after his bail plea was rejected by the Jalpaiguri Circuit Bench of the Calcutta High Court.
The couple, Aparna Bhattacharya and her husband Subodh Bhattacharya, ended their lives in April and left a suicide note which stated that Chatterjee and 3 of his aides, including 2 councillors of the Jalpaiguri Municipality, were responsible for their deaths.
Also, it is alleged in the suicide note that the Trinamool Congress youth wing leader and his aides wrongly charged Aparna with amassing money by promising jobs to people and she was forced to sign a blank stamp paper.
Earlier, the police had arrested the 3 aides of Chatterjee but he had been evading arrest.
Chatterjee, while getting into the police vehicle from the court on Monday, claimed that he was innocent and the BJP “conspired” against him.
