Gangtok, November 18: Sikkim Pradesh Congress Committee (SPCC) has demanded the investigating agencies like CID should be independent hand for conducting in-depth investigation in major crimes like the multi-crore scam to hoodwink State Bank of Sikkim (SBS) which was busted recently.
In a press statement, SPCC congratulated the CID and State Intelligence Bureau for their ‘unprecedented success’ in busting the serious racket of Rs. 85 crores. The party said that names of those influential persons involved in the case should be made public so these big names are exposed. Culprits must be punished irrespective of their official, social and political status, the party said.
The SPCC added that ever since the formation of the Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF) in Sikkim, the State has been witnessing innumerable major crimes. The opposition party highlighted cases like printing of fake currency notes, operation of illegal private banks like Teena, Bharosa and Siddhi, which swindled away crores of rupees of the depositors, smuggling of red sandalwood.
“The commitment of the SDF government to uproot corruption and illegal activities from the face of Sikkim has so far proved complete failure. Instead there has been constant increase in such activities”, said the SPCC.
Sikkim is a place where the Honourable Chief Justice of the High Court commits suicide and there isnt any concrete step taken by the government for fact finding works,,,so i cant expect anythng from this incompetent government..
Mr. Lepcha, you are right. we do not have rule of law , we have rule of money and rule of person who’s citizenship is in question. Can we expect security of sikkimese & nation from such person ? most surprising part is – there is no such word like
‘ Suo moto’ in the dictionary of our legal authorities and central agencies are all dumb and blind.
i am very sorry to mention here people but ..we even have Judicial Magistrates who cant even read a statement….gosh..where are we heading to…GOD SAVE SIKKIM from the 32+1 goonsssssssss……..
This Is not only about State Bank Of Sikkim which recently got caught with scams of crores of rupees . In fact , there is none of the Departments who is totally fair and is a part of corruption . Who will check on those areas ?
