Chhattisgarh Congress chief Bhupesh Baghel and a party spokesperson have been questioned by the CBI in connection with the alleged circulation and possession of a "sex CD" allegedly featuring a state minister.

In October last year, a controversy had erupted in the state politics following a "sex CD" allegedly involving Public Works Department Minister Rajesh Munat surfaced after the arrest of a senior journalist Vinod Verma in Ghaziabad of Uttar Pradesh by the Raipur Police.

A CBI team quizzed Baghel last night for about two-and-a-half hours at the Officers' Mess in Police Lines here, while party spokesperson R P Singh was questioned this afternoon, an official of the probe agency said.

Talking to PTI, Baghel said, "I was summoned to appear at the Camp Office of the CBI in Police Lines last evening where I was interrogated for about two-and-a-half hours."
