The Trinamool Congress on Wednesday lodged an FIR against Bengali news channel, 24 Ghonta, after its car was found trailing the convoy of party chief Mamata Banerjee and claimed it was a conspiracy to kill her. “There was a conspiracy to kill Mamata,” party general secretary Mukul Roy said soon after filing the case.
Earlier, Banerjee alleged that the car with a press sticker chased her convoy Tuesday night and tried to dash against it while she was going home after attending a meeting with intellectuals at painter Suvaprasanna’s residence in Kolkata’s Salt Lake area.
