The arrest of former Minister and Kunnamkulam MLA A.C. Moideen has been delayed following an understanding between the Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Thrissur District Congress Committee president Jose Vallur has alleged.
He was addressing on Tuesday a protest rally to the Thrissur Service Cooperative Bank where the Enforcement Directorate (ED) had conducted a raid in connection with the multi-crore Karuvannur loan scam.
“The arrest has been delayed though it has been weeks since the ED raided the house and office of Mr. Moideen. He is not even appearing for questioning. Black money of many CPI(M) leaders has been laundered through Satheesh Kumar’s account. This is with the support of many prominent leaders of the CPI(M),” Mr. Vallur said.
