Lottery of 1 Crore

Incidentally, it is claimed that Anubrata's lottery winnings came to the notice for the first time in January. At that time Anubrata's name and picture appeared on the website of a popular lottery organization of the state as a lottery winner of Rs 1 crore. Anubrata himself, however, never admitted to winning the lottery. The CBI raided a lottery shop named 'Rahul Lottery' in Bolpur after investigating the incident. Even, the shop owner Sheikh Ainul and two other lottery traders were interrogated at Ratankuthi in Santiniketan at the CBI temporary camp. Besides, the investigators also went to the Asansol correctional facility and interrogated Anubrata.

Three More Lotteries 

According to CBI sources, the investigators claimed that after examining the bank account information of Anubrata and Sukanya, they have found the whereabouts of 3 more lotteries won by them. Those 3 lottery tickets were also bought from Bolpur and adjacent areas. According to CBI, a total of  51 lakhs of rupees deposited in Sukanya's account in two phrases. On the other hand, in 2019, through the lottery, 10 lakh rupees were deposited in Anubrata's account, according to CBI sources. However, it is not clear whether Anubrata bought the lottery directly or he bought someone else's winning ticket.

Inside Jail Since August

Incidentally, Anubrata was arrested on August 11 in the case of cow smuggling. Since then he is in Asansol Correctional Facility. He was heard in the Asansol special CBI court on October 29. On that day, the judge again ordered Anubrata's jail custody. Anubrata will again be brought before the Asansol Special CBI Court on Friday, November 11.

Special Court Judge Rajesh Chakraborty asked the CBI on October 29 how long the investigation of this case would last. The CBI told the court that if there was no major breakthrough in the case, their investigation would be over within two months. On the other hand, another accused in the cow smuggling case, Anubrata Mondal's bodyguard Saigal Hussain has been taken to Delhi by the Enforcement Directorate (ED). Saigal is currently in Delhi's Tihar Jail. Anubrata's daughter Sukanya has also been interrogated by the ED. According to ED sources, based on all the information received from them, Anubrata will also be interrogated.
