The ED said that three of its officials were injured and their belongings like laptops, mobile phones and purses were "looted" in a mob attack on them when they went to search the premises of Trinamool Congress leader Shajahan Sheikh on January 5 at Sandeshkhali in West Bengal's North 24 Parganas district. The agency's counsel had prayed before the single bench for a transfer of the investigation into the attack to the CBI, claiming that the central agency does not have faith in a probe being done by the West Bengal police.
