Agency registers FIR based on solar scam case suspect’s statement
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has reportedly opened an inquiry into the allegation that at least five top Congress leaders had sought and received sexual favours from a businesswoman. Former Chief Minister Oomen Chandy; All India Congress Committee general secretary K.C. Venugopal; former Ministers Adoor Prakash and A.P. Anil Kumar; Hiby Eden, MP; Abdullah Kutty, currently a top Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) functionary; are the respondents in the case. The CBI has kept the FIR in the case a secret to protect the victim’s identity as mandated by law. It submitted the report at the CBI Special Court in Thiruvananthapuram last week.More Related News
