Municipal sources claim that the files concerning the regularisation of illegal constructions were a major source of revenue for this racket.
The complaint mentioned that around 200 feet of the playground's boundary wall, along with an iron gate and grills belonging to the civic body, were demolished.
The applicants would have to share information about the site engineer, material supplier, sub contractors, empanelled structural reviewer and several such details.
The complainant further alleged that after receiving the money, Iqbal continued to demand additional extortion payments and threatened him with a revolver.
The chief minister explained the rationale behind the exercise, saying while some wards have over 40,000 to 50,000 voters, the electorate count in some other wards is only around 8,000 to 10,000.
After hours-long wait the police summoned a locksmith to break open the gates and entered the councillor's premises. He was subsequently dragged out.
The victim who was on a motorcycle attempted to overtake the bus from behind and head straight towards Red Road, only to end up under its wheels.
In the notice, issued under Section 400(1) of the Kolkata Municipal Corporation Act, 1980, the civic body has given Banerjee seven days to demolish the alleged illegal construction or face action.
The KMC currently has four-time Trinamool Congress legislator and former member in the previous Mamata Banerjee-led Cabinet, Firhad Hakim, as its Mayor.
