TMC MP Satabdi Roy along with five others including a former TMC MP has been summoned by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in relation to the Saradha chit fund scam.

According to ED sources, the agency wanted to know with whom Saradha Group owner Sudipta Sen maintained contacts and whether the two had any role to play in the alleged usurping of deposits.

"We have summoned them (six persons including Satabdi) for questioning next week," a senior ED official said.

A former TMC MP Kunal Ghosh has also been summoned by the central agency due to his alleged connection with Sen.

The ED has also summoned an East Bengal club official along with two other Kolkata-based businessmen.
