TIL Desk/National/Kolkata/ West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday welcomed the Supreme Court’s verdict in a CBI plea against Kolkata Police chief Rajeev Kumar that ordered against his arrest and termed it a “moral victory”.
The apex court directed Kumar to appear before the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in connection with the Saradha cheat fund case at a “mutual place” and asked the probe agency not to take any coercive action against the officer, including arrest.
“It is our moral victory. We said we have full respect for the judiciary and the institutions,” Banerjee told the media from the dais of her sit-in protest here. “This order was passed earlier also that they can talk mutually in a mutual place. We are grateful for the verdict.
“Rajeev Kumar never said he would not cooperate. He gave five letters to the CBI asking the officials to meet him at a mutual place but they went to his house to arrest him in a secret operation without any notice. “Today the court said no arrest… We welcome the verdict. It will strengthen the moral of the officials,” Banerjee noted.
