Sources also said the matter is being handled by the Returning Officer.
In its effort to prevent use of money power in the May 16 by-election to Tura Lok Sabha seat, the Flying Squad on Wednesday seized Rs.16.20 lakh from the vehicle of one Chongteng K. Sangma, brother-in-law of Independent legislator from Bajengdoba Brigady N. Marak.
Marak, Parliamentary Secretary in charge Agriculture and PWD (Building) is supporting the Congress-led MUA government.
