  • 5 years ago
The CBI named Sudipta Sen, Debjani Mukherjee and Kunal Ghosh in its first charge sheet in the Saradha chit fund scam probe on Wednesday. It, however, left the unravelling of the bigger mystery for a supplementary charge sheet that will follow soon.

The document, which named four companies of the Saradha group and a firm of Ghosh, slapped three IPC sections — 409 (criminal breach of trust by public servant, or by banker, merchant or agent), 420 (cheating) and 120B (punishment of criminal conspiracy) — against the accused. The accused were also charged under sections of the prize chit and money circulation schemes banning) Act, 1978. “Further probe under section 173(8) of the code of criminal procedure continues to establish the role of other accused persons and financial transactions,” said a CBI official.

Among the companies named are Saradha Tours and Travels, Saradha Gardens, Saradha Realty, Saradha Housing and Ghosh’s Strategy Media. Sen and Debjani were involved as directors in these companies.
