Dinesh TrivediKolkata : Two days after Trinamool Congress MP and former railway minister Dinesh Trivedi claimed “honesty is being punished and dishonesty rewarded” in his party, West Bengal Congress president Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury invited him to join his party.

“Our offer to Dinesh Trivedi is to leave the Trinamool, which awards dishonesty, and join Congress. Trivedi is basically a Congress product and is more Congress than many of us,” Chowdhury said on Monday.

Vociferous against his party leaders over the Narada sting operation in which several Trinamool leaders have been ‘caught’ on camera accepting bribe, Trivedi on Saturday hit out against his own party.

“If honesty is punished and dishonesty is rewarded, I think that is sad,” Trivedi said, giving the reason for being kept out of the Trinamool’s assembly polls campaign.

“But I have no regrets… as long you do the right thing. I have no confusion in my mind, it’s the country which matters, parties come and go,” Trievdi said.

Subsequent to the sting operation becoming public, Trivedi had kicked up a storm by suggesting those “shown accepting money in the sting operation should sit at home till they come out clean”.

Meanwhile, the Trinamool has called the Congress’ offer to Trivedi as a personal matter.

“It’s their personal matter, who am I say anything. He (Chowdhury) has sent the invitation and (if) he (Trivedi) accepts it, it’s between them,” Trinamool Lok Sabha member Abhishek Banerjee said.

“It’s not related to any party matter, but their personal affair,” added Abhishek, who is also the nephew of party supremo and Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
