Referring to a letter from Lalbazar Police Headquarters, state BJP Vice-President Joy Prakash Majumdar alleged police were not taking action against O'Brien and only buying time.
BJP had lodged a complaint on April 24 in connection with the matter. A letter from Officer-In-Charge of Cyber Crime Cell to BJP yesterday said "legal opinion is being obtained" on the complaint lodged by the party.
