TMC leader Jahangir Khan, who contested from Falta, arrested near Nepal border

The arrest comes weeks after Calcutta high court’s vacation bench refused to extend the interim protection in five FIRs granted to the TMC strongman. Justice Partha Sarathi Chatterjee referred the matter to a regular bench. Earlier, Khan was granted interim protection by Justice Saugata Bhattacharyya till May 26, considering the repolls there on May 21.
