West Bengal Raj Bhavan staffers defy summons, get police notice

KOLKATA: The 3 Raj Bhavan employees summoned at Kolkata's Hare Street police station on Sunday did not turn up, prompting police to issue a notice asking them to present themselves on Tuesday.

Police said they didn't get any communication from them. Though reports indicated that at least one of them had left Kolkata, police refused to confirm or deny it.

On Thursday, Raj Bhavan special secretary S S Rajput and contractual employees Kusum Chetri and Sant Lal were booked for allegedly restraining a contractual employee who accused governor C V Ananda Bose of molesting her.

A CCTV grab showing an accused woman carrying a bag belonging to the complainant has helped firm up the evidence, said police.
