The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is understood to have issued former Minister and CPI(M) State committee member A.C Moideen a fresh notice to appear at its Kochi office for interrogation in connection with the alleged Karuvannur Service Cooperative Bank scam on Monday.
Earlier, Mr. Moideen had sought time to appear before the agency which had sought his presence on August 31. However, sources close to Mr. Moideen said he had not received any fresh notice from the agency. Repeated calls to Mr. Moideen’s mobile phone to verify the development went unanswered.
After carrying out searches at the houses of individuals associated with the alleged scam, including that of the CPI (M) leader, the ED issued a press release last week indicating the alleged role of Mr. Moideen in issuing the loans which eventually turned bad.
