It is to be noted that Abhisekh’s parents, Lata and Amit Banerjee,  were also summoned for questioning by the same investigating agency earlier this week. Parents of TMC national general secretary were summoned in their capacity as directors of Leaps and Bounds, a corporate outfit associated with this scam.

Abhisekh, himself, was also summoned on Tuesday by ED but he didn’t turn up saying that he has other political commitments. However, he didn’t communicated anything to ED in writing. The only way he responded was through his Twitter handle.
