Purulia arms drop: CBI clean chit to govt

The CBI has said there is no evidence linking any Indian politician or government agency with the Purulia arms drop case of 1995. The CBI spokesperson dismissed claim of accused Kim Davy that the clandestine work was carried out by political forces at the Centre to destabilise the Left Front Government in West Bengal. The CBI has said in a statement in New Delhi that the agency had clinching evidence against mastermind Kim Davy's alleged act of terror and was making all efforts to bring him to India to face trial in the case. Meanwhile, the CPI(M) has demanded a judicial probe into the Purulia arms drop case alleging gross negligence of the then Central government in handling the same. Speaking to reporters in New Delhi, party general secretary Prakash Karat said the arms drop was meant to destabilise the then Jyoti Basu government in West Bengal.
