50 crores have been taken back in total from Arpita Mukherjee’s two apartments. All of this cash was in the form of 500 and 2,000 dollar bills. According to reports, cash was discovered in Arpita’s Belgharia apartment’s bathroom as well.
Arpita Mukherjee, who is rumoured to be a close friend of West Bengal minister Partha Chatterjee, had two apartments raided by the enforcement directorate, and they discovered a large quantity of cash totalling 50 crore, in addition to gold, dollars, and other papers. The recoveries are related to the fraud involving teacher appointments. Model and actress Arpita Mukherjee, who has worked in the Bengali and Odia cinema industries, is currently being held by the ED. She is thought to have told the detectives that Partha Chatterjee had used his apartments as a makeshift bank. The recovered funds have already been disassociated from the Trinamool.
