Suvendu Adhikari, the former chief minister of West Bengal, has publicly accused a group known as the "Bhaipo gang" of financing the murder of his aide. The claim was made at a press conference in Kolkata, where Adhikari alleged that the gang had ties to rival political factions.
The aide, who was found dead earlier this year, has been the subject of an ongoing investigation by the West Bengal Police. While investigators have not yet linked the murder to any specific group, Adhikari’s accusation has intensified scrutiny of the case.
Adhikari, who remains a key opposition figure, said the alleged funding was part of a broader political vendetta. The claim comes amid growing tensions between his party and the ruling government, and could influence upcoming elections.
