Mahua Moitra writes to poll panel after CBI raids, alleges harassment

India Today  

Trinamool Congress leader and former MP Mahua Moitra wrote to the Election Commission on Sunday alleging that the CBI is "harassing" her and "throttling her election campaign efforts". Moitra, the Trinamool Congress candidate from Krishnanagar Lok Sabha seat, accused that the CBI has deliberately chosen to conduct four consecutive raids despite knowing about her candidacy. Moitra, who was a sitting MP from the Krishnanagar Lok Sabha seat, was expelled from the Lok Sabha in December for "unethical conduct" following a Parliamentary Committee probe into cash-for-vote allegations. The CBI raids on Moitra followed an FIR registered on Thursday on the directives of the Lokpal, which had instructed the agency to file a report within six months.
