Kolkata: The CID tonight arrested two
police officers, apparently close to former IPS officer
Bharati Ghosh, for their alleged involvement in misconduct and
extortion from civilians, a senior CID officer said.
Inspector Subhankar De and sub inspector Chitta Pal
were arrested in ongoing operations of the Daspur case, the
officer told PTI.
Police carried out the raid following a court order
after a person complained that some police personnel had
forcefully taken money from him last year, the officer said.
Ghosh, who was the West Midnapore SP, had resigned
from the services after she was transferred to a less
significant post - the commandant of the third battalion of
the state armed police - in late December last year.
