Kolkata: A day after the arrest of Trinamool Congress Rajya Sabha MP Srinjoy Bose, West Bengal Governor Keshari Nath Tripathi today said that the agency must have had some "good reasons" to do it.
"The agency which has arrested him must have had some good reasons to do it. Therefore, it is premature to make any comment," the Governor told reporters on the sidelines of a programme in Kolkata when asked to comment on Mr Bose's arrest.
Mr Bose was arrested on Friday by the CBI for alleged involvement in the multi-crore Saradha ponzi scam.
Mr Bose was arrested "for prima facie involvement in the Saradha realty case and for allegations of criminal conspiracy, misappropriation of funds and deriving undue financial benefit," a CBI spokesman had stated.
