Sr Bengal BJP neta’s aide held for fraud

KOLKATA: Kolkata Police on Saturday arrested one Rakhal Bera, believed to be a close aide of a former Trinamool minister who had joined BJP, on fraud charges.
Both Trinamool and BJP members confirmed Bera’s association with the said Bengal politician.
According to the FIR against Bera, he had taken Rs 2 lakh from Ashokenagar resident Sujit Dey between July and September 2019, promising Dey a Group-D job in the irrigation and waterways department.
The FIR alleged that Bera, along with another person, had entered into a “criminal conspiracy” with other persons and taken the money promising a job that was not there.
The FIR alleged that the accused even showed fake appointment letters with Bengal government symbols and emblems to Dey.
The complainant claimed that the accused neither provided him a job, nor returned his money.
Police said that, prima facie, it was not just one complaint, but there could be several similar plaints against Bera.
“We are trying to find out the other cases,” a police source said.
The officer further stated that more arrests are likely.
