The development comes a day after the West Bengal Police SIT arrested three alleged sharpshooters in connection with the murder and produced them before a district court in Barasat, North 24 Parganas. The court remanded the accused to police custody till May 24.
The accused were brought to Kolkata on Sunday night and are scheduled to be produced before a district court in Barasat, North 24 Parganas, on Monday, where investigators are expected to seek police custody for further interrogation.
Hours after the election results, at least four persons were killed in alleged post-poll clashes across West Bengal, with both the BJP and the TMC accusing each other of orchestrating the attacks.
