CBI today filed its fourth supplementary charge sheet in the multi-crore rupee Saradha chit fund scam.
The charge sheet, filed before the ACJM, Alipore court, indicted city-based media tycoon Ramesh Gandhi who was arrested for his alleged complicity in the Saradha scam.
It also indicted Rainbow Production Ltd of which Gandhi was the managing director and Arambh Advertising and Marketing Pvt Ltd.
