Saha reportedly tried to escape by scaling the boundary wall of his house in Burwan and throwing his mobile phone into a drain. Both phones were later retrieved from water bodies and are to be sent for forensic examination.Malviya alleged that TMC’s strategy is to loot Bengal and then use such stunts to avoid accountability.

He also targeted Mamata’s nephew Abhishek, saying both fear exposure of their alleged money-and-muscle network.He claimed that this stunt will not protect Banerjee, saying her panic reflects guilt as the 2026 elections approach.
