The Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] – Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) nexus in the State is very clear, Leader of the Opposition V.D. Satheesan has said.
The snail’s pace of ED investigation into the Karuvannur scam is an example, he said while inaugurating the United Democratic Front (UDF) election convention of K. Muraleedharan, MP, candidate in the Thrissur constituency.
“The ED investigation is hanging like the Damocles’ sword over the heads of CPI(M) leaders. But no one will be arrested. That is the understanding between the BJP and the CPI(M). The SFIO (Serious Fraud Investigation Office) asked eight months for investigating the allegations found by two statutory bodies against Pinarayi Vijayan’s daughter. What is the status of the SFIO investigation? I am sure that the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) advocate will not be well even next time when the Supreme Court considers the Lavalin case,” he said.
