Kolkata, May 18 -- A man, identified as Sona Pappu, allegedly involved in land grabbing and extortion, appeared before the Enforcement Directorate here on Monday in connection with its probe into a money laundering case, an official said. Biswajit Poddar, alias Sona Pappu, had been absconding since the central agency started an investigation into land grabbing, extortion and financial fraud charges. He appeared before the ED sleuths this morning after the agency arrested Kolkata Police Deputy Commissioner Santanu Sinha Biswas for his alleged involvement in "offences linked to Sona Pappu," the official said. Denying any link to alleged land grabbing, he claimed that there is no complaint against him at any police station. "I have come here as the ED issued a summons against me. I do not know Santanu Sinha Biswas," he said as he entered the central agency's Kolkata office.
