Kolkata, June 12 (IANS) The Kolkata police arrested a staff member of the Defence Audit section at Alipore in South Kolkata on Monday. The accused was identified as Sangita Chakraborty.

Her arrest comes in the wake of a complaint filed by the office of the Eastern Command of the Indian Army, accusing her of taking internal office pictures and leaking them.

City police sources said that the matter came to the notice of the defence authorities through CCTV footage, where Chakraborty was spotted clicking pictures of the different corners of the office and her co-employees in the “defence audit” section on her mobile.

She had reportedly sent the pictures to her friend who is a doctor by profession.

She was employed at the “defence audit” section on compassionate grounds following the sudden demise of her husband who used to work in the same section.

Police sources said that during the initial phase of interrogation she has been vague in her answers.

The accused has claimed that she came in touch with her doctor friend through social media and informed him of being humiliated by her colleagues in the office.

“As per her claims, the doctor friend advised her to click the pictures of those colleagues who were humiliating her. However, her statements have lots of inconsistencies and hence we need to interrogate her further,” an official said.

The police will soon summon the doctor friend for cross-questioning.

A city police officer said that the statements by the accused have so many inconsistencies that a bigger motive behind the entire incident cannot be ruled out.

“So unless we are absolutely clear of her motives, the interrogation and the related investigation will continue,” he said.
