Bengal police raided the house of a former bus driver and discovered 28 crore rupees in cash, with five counting machines failing to process the large amount. The suspect is a relative of stone trader Tulu Mondal, linked to former TMC leader Anubrata Mondal who joined a rebel camp earlier this month.
Police in Bengal conducted a raid on the residence of a former bus driver early this week. During the operation, officers uncovered a stash of 28 crore rupees in cash hidden in the house. The large sum caused five counting machines to fail, prompting the use of manual verification.
The suspect is identified as a relative of Tulu Mondal, a stone trader who has close ties to former Trinamool Congress leader Anubrata Mondal. Anubrata Mondal had recently joined a rebel camp led by Ritabrata Banerjee earlier in the month.
The raid is part of a broader investigation into money laundering and illegal financial activities linked to political figures. Authorities have seized the cash and are reviewing the suspect’s financial records for further evidence.
