Kolkata: A day after four Trinamool Congress (TMC) leaders were arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in the Narada scam, party MLA Madan Mitra and former leader Sovan Chatterjee were admitted to the hospital in Kolkata after they suffered from breathlessness in the wee hours of Tuesday. TMC MLA Madan Mitra and former minister Sovan Chatterjee were admitted to SSKM hospital’s Woodburn block due to breathing problems at around 3 am.
The CBI on Monday had arrested TMC ministers Firhad Hakim and Subrata Mukherjee, besides Mitra and former Kolkata Mayor Sovan Chatterjee in connection with the Narada sting operation.
The leaders were taken to Presidency Jail last night.
Earlier on Monday, a team of doctors arrived at the CBI’s office for a medical check-up of the four TMC leaders. On Monday evening, following the commotion revolving around the Narada scam, several TMC protesters pelted stones at the security forces outside the CBI office.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee took cognizance of the matter and addressed reporters by saying, “Court will give the decision”, as she left the CBI office. The case is related to a sting operation, commonly known as Narada Sting Operation, in which these former public servants were caught on camera while receiving illegal gratification from the sting operator and Narada news founder, Mathew Samuel.
