The Calcutta High Court on Tuesday observed that it is surprising that the main accused Shajahan Sheikh has not been arrested by the state police so far. The court also allowed the leader of the Opposition in West Bengal Assembly Suvendu Adhikari to visit the restive Sandeshkhali village, while.

The division bench presided by Chief Justice T S Sivagnanam refused to interfere into a single bench order that allowed Adhikari and another BJP MLA Shankar Ghosh to visit Sandeshkhali village panchayat area of Sandeshkhali Block II in North 24 Parganas district on Tuesday.
