Manik Bhattacharya was arrested late last night. According to ED sources, Manik Bhattacharya was interrogated last night at the ED office in the CGO complex. Then he was arrested by ED around 1 am.
But why arrest Manik Bhattacharya?
It is being claimed by the ED that he got confused after presenting the evidence. He was trying to hide the information. After that it was decided to arrest him. According to sources, Manik Bhattacharya’s son was informed by phone after his arrest last night.
Manik Bhattacharya’s lawyers demand the arrest of Manik Bhattacharya even though he has protection from Supreme Court. In this case, the ED officers argued, the Supreme Court’s protection applies only to CBI cases.
Hence the decision by ED to arrest Manik. Since the defense is only in the CBI case, there is no bar in arresting him in the ED case.
