According to sources, Bhadra will be questioned regarding a few people he had been associated with for a long time.

Residence raided
 

Bhadra's residence in Behala was raided by the ED on May 20, Saturday. The raids were carried out on the same day when CBI sleuths had questioned Trinamool Congress's National General Secretary Abhishek Banerjee in connection with the case.

Earlier when CBI had raided Bhadra's residence, they seized a few documents and cash. The ED sleuths have accessed certain clues from the two mobile phones of Bhadra that were seized.

Other sources said that Bhadra will also be questioned on Tuesday about the clues that were retrieved from his mobile phone.

Bhadra's name had surfaced after Gopal Dalpati, a suspect in the case, named him during the central agency's interrogations. Dalpati told the officials that an accused in the recruitment case and expelled youth Trinamool Congress leader Kuntal Ghosh, used to hand over a portion of the scam proceeds collected by him to Bhadra, whom Ghosh used to address as 'Kalighater Kaku' (uncle of Kalighat).

According to Dalpati, Kuntal Ghosh had claimed that Bhadra was acting as a middleman between him and the top leadership of the party.
