Abhishek Banerjee’s “hang myself if…” comment following ED interrogation; discusses Mahua Moitra

Abhishek Banerjee, a member of the Trinamool Congress, was questioned by the Enforcement Directorate on Thursday as part of their investigation into the purported West Bengal school jobs fraud. According to source , Banerjee, the national general secretary of the party, arrived at the ED headquarters in Kolkata at approximately 11.10 a.m.

Abhishek Banerjee, the nephew of West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee, told reporters shortly after leaving the ED office that he would assist the investigation team should it call him again.

“I’m not hiding anything. I’m available for calls whenever ED wants. The public can see that the BJP is powerless against us and is turning to investigative agencies. It’s regrettable. Present any proof you have against me to the court, Banerjee said.

“There is nothing the ED has discovered against me. I restate my prior statement: if any central agency can demonstrate my involvement in any illicit transaction, no CBI or ED investigation will be necessary. Instead, I will simply step up to the podium and be publicly hanged,” he continued.

Banerjee Abhishek on Mahua Moitra

Abhishek Banerjee also discussed Mahua Moitra, a member of the Trinamool Congress, and the accusations made against her in the “cash-for-query” issue. It has been reported that the Lok Sabha Ethics Committee, which was investigating the cash-for-query claims against Moitra, recommended that she be removed from the Lower House of Parliament due to “unethical conduct” that could have compromised national security.

“How is it possible to initiate legal action against someone without any proof? He declared, “I believe Mahua Moitra is capable of fighting her war on her own.

The central agency summoned the Diamond Harbour MP after Banerjee failed to show up for her October 3 summons in order to attend a protest event in New Delhi, where she demanded that the state get her unpaid debts under the MGNREGA scheme immediately.

An sophisticated security setup has been put in place outside the Salt Lake area ED office. In relation to the purported school recruitment fraud, Banerjee was questioned by the ED for almost nine hours on September 13. In connection with the coal theft case, the two-time TMC MP was questioned by the ED twice: in the national capital in 2021 and again in Kolkata in 2022.
