Kolkata: Suspended Trinamool Congress lawmaker and one of the main accused in the Saradha chit-fund scam Kunal Ghosh today visited his ailing mother at a Kolkata hospital after he was granted a two-hour parole.
Mr Ghosh, who is in jail for more than two years in the Saradha probe, visited a nursing home at Moulali amid tight security this afternoon to meet his mother, who is suffering from cancer.
On Wednesday, Mr Ghosh had pleaded in the Chief Judicial Magistrate's court to be allowed to see his mother, who was admitted to the nursing home on the night of June 7 after her condition deteriorated.
Judge Arabinda Mitra had granted him parole for two hours today.
Incidentally, Mr Ghosh had appealed for parole thrice earlier, but were rejected.
