The Kozhikode District Crime Branch has requested the District Police Chief to transfer the building number case in the Kozhikode Corporation to the Vigilance and Anti-Corruption Bureau as it involves several government officials. However, the request is yet to be approved by the State Police Chief.
The Crime Branch has not been able to make much progress in the case even after a year of investigation other than arresting six persons in connection with one of the cases in the scam.
