NIA gives 2nd chargesheet in NC Hills scam
The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Tuesday submitted the second chargesheet in North Cachar Autonomous District Council but failed to nail even a single top-notch politician of the state accused of having nexus with Dimasa rebels.
The NIA, which was constituted by the government soon after the Mumbai attack and entrusted with the responsibility of probing the alleged militant-politician and bureaucratic nexus in the state, has chargesheeted sixteen persons, including the NC Hills’ district council leader Mohit Hojai and DHD (J) leader Jewel Garlosa.
The unholy nexus of militant and politicians were accused to have siphoned off more than `1,000 crore from the district council and part of money siphoned off by politician was alleged to have been flowing to the militant coffer.
The NIA chargesheet, however, claimed that huge amounts of developmental funds were defalcated by the members of the district council namely Mohet Hojai and Golon Daulagupu with the help of government servants namely Karuna Saikia (addl chief engineer, PHE), R.H. Khan (deputy director, social welfare) and contractors namely Jibangsu Paul, Phojendra Hojai, J.K. Ghosh, Sandeep Ghosh and Debashis Bhattacharjee. These funds were transferred to the terrorists through Kolkata with the help of hawala operators.
The agency also found that the funds finally reached the arms dealer Vanlalchhana of Mizoram through operators at Kolkata.
