Sumit Roy, the private secretary to TMC MP Abhishek Banerjee, was granted eight days of custody by the court in connection with a land scam case in Salboni.

Roy was arrested from Banerjee's residence by a joint team of CID and Bengal STF. The court stated that Roy was not cooperating with the investigation, necessitating his custody for a thorough probe into the Salboni land scam. Following his arrest, Roy underwent a medical check-up at SSKM hospital before being produced at the Midnapore court.
