On these preliminary findings such raid and search operations are being conducted and the persons concerned are being questioned," a CBI source said.It is learnt that CBI sleuths have also identified several properties registered in the names of Anubrata Mondal's late wife Chobi Mondal and his bodyguard, Sehgal Hosssian."Sources of funds for purchase of sauch properties are highly fictitious," the source said.The central agency sleuths have already confiscated bank fixed deposits worth Rs 16.97 crore held by Anubrata Mondal and his family.CBI teams reached Bolpur late Tuesday night escorted by a huge contingent of central armed forces.Sources said that the detained councilor was extremely close to Anubrata Mondal and oversaw the Trinamool Congress's organisational network in Birbhum district.The agency sleuths suspect that he could provide them with crucial links related to the cattle smuggling scam.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
