TMC’s Abhishek Banerjee has been summoned by the CID on June 1 for questioning in connection with the probe into allegations that signatures of some party MLAs were forged in the letter nominating Sobhandeb Chattopadhyay as the assembly’s leader of the opposition.
Abhishek is the general secretary of the Trinamool Congress (TMC) and party supremo Mamata Banerjee‘s nephew. The CID summon is a fresh trouble for him as he is already under scanner over alleged illegal construction case.
