Kolkata: The Calcutta High Court in its judgement on Thursday ordered all cases in the post-poll violence in West Bengal to be handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). A larger bench of five judges pronounced its verdict at 11 am on Thursday via video conferencing.

The high court has also ordered to set up SIT for investigation into other offences. Senior officers from West Bengal cadre will be a part of the special investigation team. The Kolkata Police Commissioner, Soumen Mitra, will be part of that special team, the court said.

The state government has been asked to hand over all documents and records to the investigating agencies. "In case the state is not acting properly, it will be viewed seriously," the High Court stated.

The BJP had alleged that after the Trinamool's sweeping victory, its goons attacked women members, killed workers, vandalised houses and looted shops and offices belonging to party members.

The Bengal government has said the reports have been greatly exaggerated, with fake videos and images, and most of the incidents of violence that took place around the May 2 counting day happened when the state police were under the control of the Election Commission.
