ED raids ex-Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan's house in CMRL money laundering case
Thiruvananthapuram : The Enforcement Directorate on Wednesday carried out searches at the residence of former Kerala chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan and several others in connection with its probe into the CMRL money laundering case, officials said.
A total of 10 premises across Kerala, including Vijayan’s rented residence in Thiruvananthapuram, were searched under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
The case pertains to allegations that private firm Cochin Minerals And Rutile Ltd made an illegal payment of Rs 1.72 crore to Exalogic Solutions, a company owned by Vijayan’s daughter T Veena, between 2018 and 2019, despite the IT firm allegedly not providing any services to CMRL.
The searches came a day after the Kerala High Court dismissed a petition filed by CMRL seeking to quash the ED proceedings in the matter.
The ED had registered a PMLA case in 2024 to investigate the allegations.
