ED alleges 'fabrication' of court order by Kolkata Police, FIR registered
Apr 29, 2022
Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], April 29 : The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has accused the Kolkata Police of forgery and fabrication of a court order.
According to sources, ED officials have given a complaint to the Delhi police. On the complaint of ED, Delhi police registered a complaint on April 20.
In the FIR registered by the Delhi Police, ED officials claimed that the court order was tampered with in a bid to make ED Joint Director Kapil Raj provide a voice sample without his consent.
Chief Judicial Magistrate's court in Alipore had, last month, asked Raj to appear before the Kolkata Police and provide a voice sample to investigators, with his consent.
ED officials claim that the text of the order, provided to the central agency by the Kolkata Police, deleted the reference to consent -- a ruse, they allege, to compel Raj to comply with their wishes.
The Kolkata Police is yet to comment on the allegation.
