A team of the NIA was allegedly attacked by a mob on Saturday when it went to arrest two main suspects in a 2022 Bhupatinagar blast case in Purba Medinipur district, sparking a political slugfest with West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee accusing the investigators🌜 of assaulting the vi🦩llagers.
T✅he NIA said one of its officers was injured and a vehicle was damaged in the attack tꦉhat happened in Bhupatinagar.
The attack on the NIA team happened around three months after villagers and l༒ocals assaulted a team of Enforcement Department (ED) officers when they went to raid the re⛄sidence of, now arrested, TMC leader Shajahan Sheikh on January 5 in connection with the alleged ration scam.
