Attack on lensmen: CM seeks report

KOLKATA, JULY 2. The West Bengal Chief Minister, Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee, has sought a report from the City Police Commissioner on the reported assault on the photographers of some television channels after his departure from the toy exhibition at the Netaji Indoor Stadium here today.

``I must say the behaviour of some of the TV cameramen was frenzied. They broke a showcase in a stall in front of me. I could have been hurt. This was most unprofessional," Mr Bhattacharjee told reporters at Writers' Building. The Chief Minister also asked senior lensmen present during the incident to submit a report to him. "I have also asked the Police Commissioner to submit a report on the incident by tomorrow," he said.The cameramen alleged that soon after the Chief Minister had left the venue some policemen attacked them and even broke costly cameras. .
