Ruling BJD MLA from Banki Pravat Kumar Tripathy was today grilled by Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with the Artha Tatwa (AT) group chit fund scam.
"The ED had sought some documents related to my bank accounts and movable and immovable properties. I have submitted the same today. It has also given me time of ten days to submit some other documents which couldn't be submitted by me today," Tripathy told reporters afterwards.
Tripathy, who is on bail after being arrested by the CBI in the chitfund scam in October, 2014, was grilled by the ED officials for about four hours.
The MLA was granted bail by Orissa High Court on March 3, 2015. He was accused of receiving about Rs 40 lakh from the tainted AT group.
