Here are the important developments from Kerala to watch out for today:
1) A trial court in Ernakulam will pronounce its verdict on the State's plea for permission to withdraw the illegal possession of ivory case registered against actor Mohanlal. An Income Tax raid on Mohanlal's house in Kochi in 2012 had led to the discovery of ivory tusks and artefacts. Two public interest litigants had challenged the government's move.
2) The High Court will hear a plea seeking a CBI probe into the Wayanad (Muttil) forest timber loot cases involving the illegal felling of valuable and protected rosewood trees.
