Legal troubles seem far from over for popular Tollywood actress Rituparna Sengupta.
The actress appeared before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) at its city office on Wednesday
in connection with the ongoing investigation into the multi-crore ration distribution scam,
according to NDTV reports.
The ‘Praktan’ famed actress was asked to present specific documents related to her
bank transactions, stated Indian officials.
During the questioning, which lasted for over five hours, Sengupta was asked about her relationship with former Food and Supplies Minister Jyotipriyo Mallick, who has been arrested in the case, officials said.
She was also asked if any financial transactions occurred between her office and the state Food and Supplies Department when Mallick was the Minister, they added.
“We also verified some details, including transactions made through her bank accounts.
She has submitted a few documents, which will also be verified,” an ED officer said.
Following the questioning, Sengupta claimed that she had no connection with the
alleged irregularities.
