Cattle Smuggling Case: Delhi Court Seeks Response From CBI, ED On Interim Bail Plea Of Accused

A Delhi court has recently sought response from the CBI & ED on 2 separate interim bail applications moved by TMC leader Anubrata Mondal’s former bodyguard and co-accused in corruption and money laundering cases respectively in relation to cattle smuggling in West Bengal.

Special judge Raghubir Singh issued notice to both the probe agencies and directed them to file their response by November 2 on the applications filed by Sehegal Hossain in the case.

The judge stated, “Let notice of these bail applications be given to the respective IOs of the CBI and ED cases for November 2.”

The ED registered the money laundering case following a FIR by the CBI in Kolkata against Satish Kumar, who was then a BSF commandant.

The CBI FIR alleged that the Trinamool Congress leader, along with Kumar, other public servants and private persons, was involved in the multi-crore cattle smuggling racket.
