The Enforcement Directorate on Wednesday told the Calcutta High Court that the Trinamool Congress and its boss Mamata Banerjee took away all material before the agency tried to seize them during the I-PAC

\n\n

raids.

The Calcutta High Court was hearing petitions filed by the ED and TMC in connection with last week’s searches at the residence and office of Pratik Jain, who is the director of political consultancy firm I-PAC.

\n\n

The ED prayed for the matter to be adjourned as it has moved the Supreme Court on the issue. The TMC’s counsel Menaka Guruswamy, meanwhile, submitted that the party was only seeking protection of its data.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s lawyer Kalyan Banerjee objected to the ED’s plea for adjournment. Mamata has been made a party by the central probe agency in its petition before the high court.

\n\n

Representing the ED, additional solicitor general SV Raju stated before the bench of Justice Suvra Ghosh that the agency seeks adjournment of the matters at the high court as it has filed a petition on the same issue before the Supreme Court. He said when a matter is pending before the apex court, a high court should not hear it.
