West Bengal minister Sujit Bose faced a nearly nine-hour interrogation by the Enforcement Directorate on Friday, as part of the ongoing investigation into the alleged civic body recruitment scam.
Accompanied by his son and legal representatives, Bose arrived at the ED's office in Salt Lake, Kolkata, complying with a Calcutta High Court directive after ignoring previous summonses.
Bose, seeking re-election from Bidhannagar, has dismissed the charges as politically motivated, purportedly orchestrated by rival BJP, while stressing his cooperation with the agency's probe.
