Mahua Moitra said the timing of the CBI raids raised suspicion that the CBI was ‘dancing to the tunes of political dicta’. Mahua Moitra writes to EC against ‘smear campaign’.
Trinamool leader Mahua Moitra on Sunday wrote to the Election Commission against the consecutive four raids on her various properties in West Bengal by the CBI and said the poll body should create a framework of CBI conduct during the model code of conduct. The CBI on Saturday conducted searches at Mahua Moitra’s addresses in Kolkata, Krishnanagar and Karimpur in connection with the alleged cash-for-query case for which she was expelled for the last Lok Sabha.
“Two out of the four premises where the illegal raids were carried out by the CBI were admittedly used for official purposes and the same is evident from the CBI’s own ‘Search List(s)’, wherein it has acknowledged that one property in the election campaigning office and the other is my MP office. Hence there is no doubt that the CBI was unequivocally aware that their actions were targeted to throttle my election campaign efforts and to thereby illegally harass me,” Mahua wrote.
