Kolkata, Jan 30 (IANS) West Bengal Transport Minister Madan Mitra, behind bars in connection with the multi-crore rupee Saradha scam, has not been cooperating in the investigations, the CBI Friday told a city court during the Trinamool Congress leader's appearance.

Mitra, whose judicial custody expired on the day, could not appear before the court due to illness as Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Haradhan Mukherjee extended his custody till Feb 12.

Opposing Mitra's bail plea, CBI counsel Partha Sarathi Dutta said that the minister did not properly cooperate during his interrogation inside the Alipore Correctional Home wherein he is lodged.
