"2 kg Gold" Row At Airport Lands Trinamool Leader's Wife In Trouble | Read
Reports of two kilos of gold allegedly seized by the Customs Department from the wife of Trinamool leader Abhishek Banerjee today led to two separate press meets that painted completely contradictory pictures of what happened and hit a new low in politics. Abhishek Banerjee claimed that his wife was not even carrying two grams of gold when she flew into Kolkata on the intervening night of March 15 and 16 from Thailand. "I will leave politics if anyone can prove she had any dutiable gold or goods on her," he said. "Also, see if you can prove if she had sought and was given any VIP treatment at the airport."
