BHUBANESWAR:
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) continued its raids on the Navadiganta
Capital Services Limited, a chit-fund firm, for the second consecutive day on
Friday. A team of the agency conducted raid on the residence of a director of
the company at Hanspal on the outskirts of the city.
Sources
said the team has seized several important documents which would help the
officers during the interrogation of the director Kartikyya Parida in
connection with the scam.
Though
the officers were tightlipped about the search operations, sources said, they
would conduct raids on the houses of the directors to get important clues in
the case.
On
Thursday, the CBI had conducted raids at 20 places in the State including the Navadiganta
Company’s office in Nayapalli and the house of another director Pardeep Kumar
Patnaik. It had also raided residences of BJD MP from Mayurbhanj Ramachandra Hansdah,
former BJD MLA from Keonjhar Subarna Naik and former BJP MLA from Khariar
Hitesh Bagarti for their link with the company as founder members.
Notably,
the Navadiganta Company registered in 2011 has allegedly duped thousands of
gullible investors by collecting crores of rupees from them. It had opened
branches in Bhubaneswar, Keonjhar, Mayurbhanj, Boudh, Kandhamal districts and
had duped more than 2000 investors of around Rs 70 crore on the promise of
hefty returns.
