Attack on ED officials: Bengal Guv seeks report from state govt on action taken against guilty

West Bengal Governor C V Ananda Bose has sought a report from the state government on action taken in response to a mob attack on ED officers, who conducted a raid at TMC leader Sahajahan Sheikh’s house in connection with the multi-crore ration distribution scam, an official said.

Bose asked the state government to provide a report explaining why Sheikh has not been arrested, and to clarify whether he is still in India.

The governor has also urged the West Bengal government to “hold accountable those responsible for the failure of the law and order machinery, and to take action against police officers who neglected their duties,” the official said.
