Sources indicate that a private aviation firm, whose office was among the locations searched, allegedly provided chartered aircraft to senior TMC figures such as former chief minister Mamata Banerjee and national secretary Abhishek Banerjee during election campaigns and official trips.
Investigators believe the aircraft services may have been used to move money connected to the frozen accounts.
The claim adds another layer to the ongoing scrutiny of how party funds were managed and whether any financial benefits were derived from the flight arrangements.
