The West Bengal CID has summoned Leader of Opposition in the Assembly, Suvendu Adhikari, in connection with the investigation into the death of his bodyguard. A senior official gave this information on Sunday.
The BJP MLA from Nandigram has been asked to appear before the investigating officers at the CID headquarters at Bhavani Bhavan on Monday, he said.
The CID had formed a team to probe the death of the officer’s bodyguard Subhabrata Chakraborty, who allegedly shot himself with his service revolver.
Chakraborty’s wife had lodged a complaint with the Contai police station demanding an inquiry into her husband’s death. The CID has so far questioned 15 people, including 11 policemen, under investigation. Earlier, its team members had also visited Shanti Kunj, the former Medinipur residence of Mr. Adhikari. Chakraborty, a state armed police personnel, was part of Mr Adhikari’s security team when he was a TMC MP, and remained in the squad even after becoming a minister in 2015.
