Sex CD scandal: Senior journalist Vinod Verma taken to Raipur

Senior journalist Vinod Verma has been taken to Mana police station in Raipur, Saturday night, on his three-day transit remand.

While entering the police station, the senior journalist said, "This is just tip of the iceberg."

On October 27, Vinod Verma was arrested by the Chhattisgarh Police in connection with extortion and blackmailing case from his residence in Indirapuram in Uttar Pradesh's Ghaziabad.

Verma was arrested after an FIR was filed against him by a man over a certain 'vulgar' video that features his boss.

A day after he was arrested by the Chhattisgarh police, an FIR was lodged against the state Congress president Bhupesh Baghel and Verma.

Verma, who was arrested in connection with extortion and blackmailing case, had said that he has 'a sex CD 'of the Chhattisgarh minister.

"I have a sex CD of Chhattisgarh Minister Rajesh Munat and that is why the state government is not happy with me," he said.

Earlier on Saturday, Raman Singh, the state Chief Minister questioned Opposition's role in the controversial sex CD scandal allegedly involving state minister Rajesh Munat.
