A group of the Enforcement Directorate on Friday browsed different places in West Bengal in connection with a local tasks fraud case.

According to the information, 2 facilities connected to Bengal Fire Services Minister Sujit Bose, and one facility each connected to Trinamool MLA Tapas Roy and a previous vice-chairman of the town were being browsed.

The searches started at almost 6.40 am today.

In April 2023, the Calcutta High Court had actually directed the CBI to penetrate the abnormalities in the recruitment of towns.

Both probe firms – the ED and the CBI are taking a look at the abnormalities in the recruitments made by the civic bodies.

Later on, in August 2023, the Supreme Court had actually dismissed a petition by the West Bengal federal government challenging the CBI probe into the case.

On October 5, the Enforcement Directorate had actually browsed several places, consisting of the home of Food and Supplies Minister Rathin Ghosh, in connection with the recruitment case.
