Subhra Kundu, wife of the jailed owner of Rose Valley group Gautam Kundu, was produced before a Bidhnanagar court on Saturday where bail plea was turned down, a day after her arrest by the CBI from her upscale south Calcutta condominium.

Arrested in connection with the multi-crore Ponzi scam for which her husband had been arrested five years ago, Subhra was sent to Bhubaneswar jail on a two-day transit remand.

A former actress, Subhra will be produced before a court in Bhubaneswar again after two days. Though many people cheated in the Rose Valley scam were from Bengal, the main case was started at Bhubaneswar by the CBI.

Sources in the CBI said two more directors of the company and another member of the Kundu family also attached to the family business were under scanner and would soon be summoned for examination. CBI sleuths said they were trying to wrap up the case by completing the probe.

“Though the case is old, it is pertinent to say that we are in the last leg of the probe. Some (company) directors who have not been examined properly will now be called very soon,” said a senior CBI officer.

Two Trinamul MPs Sudip Bandopadhyay and Tapas Pal, were arrested by the CBI in 2017 in connection with the scam. The CBI also recently arrested former Trinamul Rajya Sabha member and industrialist K.D. Singh in connection with a separate money laundering case.

The fact that the central agency, which had been probing these cases for the past few years, has swung into action recently has given rise to speculations that the activities are “politically motivated”.
