The central agency suspected that several bank accounts belonging to Mondal's daughter were used for financial transactions in the scam, he said.

"We have found several joint bank accounts of Mondal and his daughter. The two are joint holders of many other assets as well. Several accounts belonging to his daughter were used for transactions in the cattle smuggling scam.

"A flat in Chinar Park area, on the outskirts of the city, was registered in his daughter's name. We have found two more flats in her name. There are several rice mills too," the officer said.

During the day, the CBI sleuths questioned Mondal in connection with the scam, he said, claiming that the TMC leader "did not cooperate" with them.

Mondal's bodyguard Saigal Hossain, who has also been in custody for his alleged involvement in the scam, the central agency's official added.
