Trinamool leader held in murder case of Kolkata gold trader, links to mastermind BDO under probe
KOLKATA: The police have arrested a Trinamool Congress block president from Cooch Behar district, marking the third arrest in the alleged murder of a gold trader in West Bengal, a crime purportedly masterminded by a Block Development Officer (BDO), officials said on Thursday.
The accused TMC leader, identified as Sajal Sarkar, is reportedly a close associate of Rajganj BDO Prashant Barman, who stands accused of planning the murder, with police currently probing the extent of his involvement.
The arrest follows the earlier detentions of the BDO’s driver, Raju Dhali, and his friend, Tufan Thapa, bringing the total number of arrests to three in the murder case of the gold trader, Swapan Kamilya.
