An official said “We are appointing 10 IPS officers for north, south, west and Kolkata Police areas zones to assist the Special Investigation Team”

“The services of the IPS officers are hereby spared, in addition to their normal duties, to assist the SIT constituted by the Hon’ble High Court at Calcutta” he added.
