The CBI on Friday interrogated chit fund firm Rose Valley Group managing director Shibamoy Dutta and director Ashok Kumar Saha in connection with the chit fund scam in the State.
On Thursday, the Special CBI court in the city had granted the CBI to take the duo on a seven-day remand to interrogate them for their alleged involvement in the scam.
Sources said the CBI quizzed the top officials of the ponzi firm about financial transaction of the company as it had collected money from gullible investors through its 65 branches in Odisha. Earlier, the State Crime Branch who was probing the scam before had raided the company offices in June 2013 on the basis of 25 cases lodged against the ponzi firm. The Crime Branch had seized properties worth `53 crore.
later the CBI took over the case and raided company’s offices at 43 places across the country. The investigating sleuths had seized some incriminating documents from the offices of the chit fund firm.
