The CBI on Thursday conducted searches at 10 locations in West Bengal in connection with an alleged multi-crore coal pilferage scam in the Eastern Coalfields Ltd mines in the state’s Kunustoria and Kajora areas, officials said.
The searches are taking place at multiple locations in Kolkata and other cities as part of further investigation into the case, they said.
The agency had charge-sheeted alleged mastermind Anup Manjhi alias Lala along with 40 others in July last year in connection with the case.
