Bengal appears to be a state where a fish trader turns out to be a another crorepati

This time, the credit of unearthing another man with crores of rupees in his possession goes to the Crime Investigation Department CID. He is a fish trader and the sleuths recovered more than Rs 1.3 crore in cash from his residence. The location is a village in Gazole of Malda district. The CID arrested the trader and has taken him to the police station for interrogation. It seems the police had prior information about the individual and his involvement in drug related activities, especially cough syrups. Based on the information the CID team arrived, conducted the raid and recovered the cash. There was currency notes in denomination of Rs 2,000 and Rs 500 in different rooms. Once the cash was brought in one place, the team called for a counting machine from the local branch of a bank. CID raids fish trader's house, recovers Rs 1.3 crore cash.

The neighbors were stunned to know about the horde of cash in the house of the fish trader. One of them admitted - . “We had no idea that Saha was involved in any wrongdoing.” Another villager said - “He would take ponds and swamps on lease, harvest different varieties of fish and sell those to wholesale fish traders.” None of his neighbors had any inkling about his illegal activities. Until now, central agencies like the ED and CBI had been identifying political heavyweights and individuals and unearthing their crores. Now, the CID of the state is unearthing common traders with more crores. One can safely say Bengal offers innumerable opportunities to those who know the tricks of the trade to mint millions.
