Italian connection of Monson under investigation
Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Tuesday dropped a strong hint in the Assembly that KPCC president K. Sudhkaran, MP, could come under the ambit of the Crime Branch (CB) investigation into alleged trickster and “fake antique” peddler Monson Mavunkal.
Without naming Mr. Sudhakaran, the Chief Minister said the CB had received a specific complaint that Monson had accepted a large sum of money as credit from a business person in the presence of an “important person”.
Mr. Vijayan said the petitioner had named the “dignitary” as an abettor in the complaint. Monson had told the petitioner that he required the help of some persons influential in New Delhi to release foreign payments held up in his various international bank accounts. The complainant handed over ₹25 lakhs to Monson in the presence of the VIP as a loan.
