Kolkata, Nov 16 (IBNS): Suspended Trinamool Rajya Sabha MP Kunal Ghosh, who allegedly tried to commit suicide last week, was discharged from SSKM hospital in Kolkata on Sunday, media reports said.

According to reports, he has been taken back to Presidency jail.

On Friday, Ghosh allegedly attempted suicide by taking sleeping pills and then informed the Jail officials.

He reportedly told the Jail offcials that he took 58 'Alprazolam' sleeping pills, though medical reports claimed, he didn't took that many pills.

He was admitted in hospital after that where the doctors had his stomach washed.

He had threatened in a court on Monday that he would commit suicide if the “real culprits” of the Saradha scam are not arrested.

Ghosh was in Kolkata’s Presidency Jail since he was arrested in November last year in connection with the ponzi scam.

He is one of the key accused in the multi-crore Saradha Group chit fund scam.

A journalist by profession, Ghosh was the CEO of Saradha Group’s media operations.

Ghosh has been named by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in its first chargesheet in the multi-crore scam along with Saradha chief Sen and close aide Debjani Mukherjee.
