The central agency is likely to interrogate four TMC MPs and one West Bengal minister in this regard.
“The political links are being probed. Several names have surfaced during the interrogation of Sudipta Sen and Debabrata Sarkar,” a CBI source said.
“We are making a primary probe into the role two Rajya Sabha MPs and one Lok Sabha MP of TMC and one state minister.
"They will be summoned as and when the investigation requires their presence.”
Earlier, Sen had alleged in his purported letter to the Central Bureau of Investigation that Kunal Ghosh and TMC Rajya Sabha member Srinjay Bose had blackmailed him, and he was forced to pay hefty amounts to them.
Both had refuted the allegations. Ghosh is currently in jail in connection with the scam.
