Saradha scam: ED again questions TMC candidate Arpita Ghosh

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) today again summoned thespian and Trinamool Congress candidate Arpita Ghosh for questioning in connection with the ongoing investigation of the Saradha chit fund scam.
"Yes we had summoned her (Arpita Ghosh) again today for questioning regarding the Saradha scam," a senior ED officer said.
The ED had questioned Ghosh on April 25 regarding the investigation for more than two hours.
The ED had earlier arrested Saradha Group chairman Sudipta Sen's wife Piyali Sen and son Subhojit, though a SIT was set up by the state government to investigate the scam.
The Enforcement Directorate had not ruled out the possibility of grilling Trinamool Congress leaders and ministers in the multi-crore Saradha chit fund scam and when asked about it, a senior ED officer had said nobody was out of their radar.

The ED's investigation had led to a war of words between the state government which had accused the agency of acting at the behest of Union Finance Minister P Chidamabaram, a charge denied by him.
