Kolkata/UNI: The CBI probing the coal scam on Thursday quizzed three senior Indian Railways officers at its city office, official sources said.

The CBI, on the hunt for coal scam prime accused including, Anup Majhi alias Lala and TMC leader Vinay Mishra, has already quizzed MP Abishekh Banerjee's wife Rujira Banerjee and her sister Maneka Gambhir.

It summoned the three railway officers to its office at Nizam Palace in the city for questioning on Thursday.
