Days after a contractual employee at Kolkata Raj Bhavan brought sexual assault charges against Bengal Governor CV Ananda Bose he on Thursday showed the CCTV footage of the said date to a limited audience that he called "common men" which would not comprise members from any political party or for that matter police force.
May 2 footage from two CCTV cameras at the main gate was shown to people at the hall on the ground floor of Raj Bhavan, sources said adding there were about one hundred people.
The alleged incident took place when a woman working as a contractual ministerial employee complained to the Hare Street Police that she had been molested by the Governor on the pretext of giving her a good assignment and maybe a good and permanent posting.
"Governor Bose has launched a programme 'SACH KE SAAMNE' in the background of the mischievous and fabricated allegations by the police that Raj Bhavan is not sparing the CCTV footage of an incident which is under the illegal and unconstitutional investigation of the police," said a Raj Bhavan post.
It was also said that the Honourable Governor has decided that the CCTV footages can be seen by any citizen of West Bengal — except politicians Mamata Banerjee and her police for the stand they had taken, which is in public domain."
