A businessman was arrested from his house off the Bypass for using “fake Enforcement Directorate papers” for personal gain, police said.

Officers of the Bidhannagar commissionerate’s detective department arrested Sudipta Roy Choudhury on Tuesday morning based on a complaint filed by the Enforcement Directorate on September 9, an officer of the commissionerate said.

Roy Choudhury had earlier been arrested in connection with the same case. He had managed to secure bail from court, the officer said.

Lawyers Rajdeep Banerjee and Soumyajit Raha who represented Roy Choudhury in court said all documents the Enforcement Directorate and the police had submitted in court and termed “fraudulent papers” were available in public domain and could be accessed by anyone.

A Salt Lake court has sent Roy Choudhury to police custody for seven days, an officer said.
