Kolkata: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has summoned four persons next week for questioning in the Bengal illegal coal mining case. All four are said to be close aides of prime accused Anup Majee, alias Lala
Jaydeb Mandal, Nirad Mandal, Narayan Nanda and Gurupada Maji were earlier arrested in the same case by the CBI. They were recently granted bail by a special CBI court in Asansol.
Jaydeb allegedly ran the entire operation in Asansol and its adjoining areas. He had even built a rapport with a few officials who helped him transport coal. Initially, Jaydeb worked with another group led by one Raju Jha, but later switched to Majee’s side.
