Kolkata, June 5 (IANS) West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday condemned the raid on national news channel NDTV founder Prannoy Roy's residence, terming it a "disturbing trend".
"Shocked at the raids on Dr @PrannoyRoyNDTV's house. He is highly respected and reputed. Disturbing trend," she tweeted.
The CBI on Monday raided Roy's residence in Delhi over an alleged bank loan default case, which the national news channel said was part of the probe agency's "concerted harassment" to muzzle free speech.
The CBI registered the case against Roy, his wife Radhika, a private company and others. The probe agency conducted searches at Roy's Greater Kailash-I residence in south Delhi for causing alleged loss to a bank.
