SHILLONG: The questioning of former TMC leader, Kunal Ghosh by the CBI here finally got over on Monday evening while the questioning of Kolkata Police Commissioner, Rajeev Kumar will continue  on Tuesday.

The questioning of Rajeev Kumar is going on since Saturday while Kunal Ghosh was also questioned for two days since Sunday

It is learnt that there was joint  questioning of both Kumar and Ghosh on Monday

Later, speaking to media persons after the questioning, Ghosh said that he attended and cooperated with the CBI in the investigation

Refusing to make any comment on the investigation, he added that he would go back to Kolkata on Tuesday

CBI officials  are reportedly quizzed Kumar on matters related to the investigation  earlier carried out by the special investigation team (SIT) into the chit fund case and which Kumar had then headed.

The Supreme Court  had recently directed Kumar to appear before the CBI and “faithfully” cooperate with the investigation into Saradha chit fund scam. The court had decided on Shillong as the venue for the questioning for  being a “mutually agreed” place — after the stand-off between Kolkata Police and CBI in Kolkata earlier.
