The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is set to expand its investigation into the CMRL-Exalogic financial transactions case to include PA Mohammed Riyas, a former minister and husband of Veena T (Veena Vijayan), daughter of former Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan.
In an unusual move, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has approached the Kerala High Court challenging the Thiruvananthapuram Sessions Court's order granting bail to SFI leader Harish Kumar, the ninth accused in the case relating to the attack on ED officials following a raid at former Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan's rented residence in Thiruvananthapuram.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) broadened the scope of its probe into the CMRL payoff case to investigate if the first Pinarayi Vijayan government granted favours in exchange for payments to Exalogic Solutions, the company owned by the former CM’s daughter.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) interrogated T. Veena (Veena Vijayan, daughter of former Kerala Chief Minister) for a second time on Thursday at its Kochi zonal office.
The Kochi unit of the ED has written to ED Directorate in Delhi seeking permission to register an Enforcement Case Information Report (ECIR)in Sabarimala gold robbery.
On being informed of the court's decision Michel said that he was happy and that there were good judges. He also said that he is working on organising his travel documents.
The order came on a petition filed by the ED, which sought access to the case records to examine alleged money-laundering aspects linked to the Sabarimala gold theft.
A single bench of Justice VG Arun passed the interim order, staying all proceedings of the show-cause notices the Enforcement Directorate had issued to Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and two others for a period of three months.
Sources, in fact, say that the Enforcement Directorate may soon get a stay on the court order and may not have to release the multi-crore National Herald property it had seized.
