Kolkata deputy mayor questions police theory on husband’s death

Momin’s family,however,were not convinced by the accident theory put forward by the police. While the police said it was a hit and run case,Farzana alleged there were several irregularities in the police report.

She met Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee yesterday and,according to sources,sought a CID inquiry because she “did not have faith in the way police had been handling the case”.

On Wednesday,Farzana lodged a missing complaint at Kasba police station when her husband did not return home even an hour and a half past his usual time of 8 pm. Later,Leather Complex police station got in touch with Kasba police station regarding a body,which was later identified as Momin.

Police sources said Momin,a lawyer by profession,was returning home when a truck collided with his bike and crushed him near Bantala Leather Complex.

“If the death occurred between 7 and 9 in the evening on Wednesday,and police got to know from the bike’s registration number that the deceased was a Kasba resident,why was the family informed the next morning?” asked a relative of Momin.

The family also questioned why the bike was not damaged after such a serious accident.
