SC rebukes Mamata Banerjee over ED probe interference

India's Supreme Court has issued a strong rebuke to West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee over her alleged interference in an Enforcement Directorate (ED) investigation. The court stated that a chief minister cannot interfere in an ongoing probe and that such actions risk creating a constitutional crisis. The justices remarked that her alleged entry at the probe site put the system in jeopardy, with one stating they "never thought such a day would come." The court warned that such conduct puts democracy in peril.
