Mr Sinh is the first former Union Minister to be arrested by the agency in connection with the case.

The sources said Mr Sinh was called to the headquarter of Special Investigation Team in Kolkata where he was grilled by the team for over five hours before being arrested. Mr Sinh also, allegedly, named many bureaucrats and reportedly claimed he influenced them for many benefits including favourable postings.

CBI sources said the arrest became imminent as he was not cooperating with the investigation team on some important issues prompting the agency to take him into their custody during which another round of examination might take place.
