The CBI on Sunday interrogated Seashore Group CMD Prashant Das’ wife Jyotirani Sarangi and two functionaries of the company in connection with the chit fund scam.
Seashore chief’s spouse, along with two employees of the company, reached the CBI office here at about 3.30 pm to face the interrogation.
Sources said that Das’ wife was quizzed for about one and a half hours while branch manager and cashier of the company’s Brahmapur branch were questioned for over two hours.
The CBI interrogated Das’ wife, a member of the board of directors of the Seashore Group, about the transfer of money from the company’s accounts to her personal account in the immediate aftermath of her husband’s arrest by the Crime Branch last year, sources said.
Earlier, the CBI had grilled Das’ son Pradeep on November 9 and 16 as he was suspected to be managing the company’s affair after Das’ arrest. PNS
