Kolkata: National award winning film maker Aparna Sen was questioned by the Enforcement Directorate on Monday in connection with the multi-crore-rupee Saradha chit fund scam.
Sen appeared before the agency that is probing the scam along with husband Kalyan Roy.
Aparna Sen was the editor of a magazine called Parama which was owned by Sudipta Sen. Sudipta is the main accused in the Saradha scam.
The ED said that in their quest to unravel the trail of the scam, they had quizzed Aparna Sen for any possible links but it is too early to conclude if she is accused or not.
Trinamool Congress leader and West Bengal Textile Minister Shyamapada Mukherjee is also slated to appear before the agency for questioning during the day.
The first state minister to be questioned in the scam, Mukherjee has been summoned regarding the transaction of a plot of land with the Saradha group in 2009.
