Cattle Smuggling Case: SC Grants Bail To TMC Leader Anubrata Mondal

The Supreme Court has recently granted bail to Trinamool Congress leader Anubrata Mondal, who got arrested by the CBI in a cattle smuggling case.

A bench of Justices Bela M Trivedi and SC Sharma granted the relief to Mondal after noting that the trial in the matter would take time and he has been in jail for 2 years.

The apex court directed Mondal to cooperate in the investigation and surrender his passport.

Senior advocate Mukul Rohatgi, appearing on behalf of Mondal, submitted that 4 charge sheets have been filed in the case and everybody except the TMC leader is out of jail.

Additional Solicitor General SV Raju, appearing for the CBI, opposed the bail plea, stating that Mondal is a very influential person and was involved in tampering with evidence.

The CBI claimed that Mondal was the main facilitator for the smooth transportation of cattle through West Bengal’s Birbhum district to Bangladesh.

Mondal’s counsel stated that no such evidence was found.
