"The entire staff of Delhi's Special Cell asked me a set of many questions. However, their behaviour was very decent. They asked me for tea and ordered lunch for me as well. As two -- Prabir Purkayastha and Amit Chakravarty -- have been arrested, I feel the police also behave in a decent way with them," Thakurta said
