TT Legal Reporter | Calcutta | 30.11.21: A division bench of Calcutta High Court headed by Justice Debangsu Basak on Monday did away with a prior order restraining the CBI from taking coercive action against Sheikh Sufiyan, Mamata Banerjee’s election agent in Nandigram in the Assembly polls this summer.
The bench also rejected his anticipatory bail petition. Sufiyan fears arrest in connection with an alleged post-poll results clash.
According to the CBI’s counsel, his client had definite information that Sufiyan was involved in the alleged clash and he should not get anticipatory bail, as being an influential person he might tamper with evidence.Sufiyan was among those named in a complaint by the family of Debabrata Maiti, a BJP supporter allegedly injured by Trinamul-backed goons on May 3, a after the election results in Nandigram’s Chillogram.
Maiti died of his injuries in a hospital on May 13.Sufiyan has the option to challenge the order in the Supreme Court.
