Meanwhile, Union minister and BJP’s Thiruvananthapuram Lok Sabha constituency candidate Rajeev Chandrasekhar dismissed the CPI-M allegation that the ED probe against Vijayan’s daughter is politically motivated.
Speaking to media persons here, Chandrasekhar said criminals typically deny their involvement in the crime and shift blame onto probe agencies.
The ED Kochi unit on Wednesday registered a case against the firm owned by Veena Vijayan under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002.
