Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president K. Sudhakaran has said he is ready to face any investigation in the cases registered against him. Speaking to the media here on Wednesday, Mr. Sudhakaran said he has no fear even if the CBI conducts a direct investigation.
He was responding to an inquiry started by the Vigilance and Anti-Corruption Bureau (VACB) into a complaint received two years ago in which Prashanth Babu, who was a driver of Mr. Sudhakaran, had alleged that the Congress leader had mobilised ₹32 crore to enable a charitable trust formed in the memory of the late party leader and former Chief Minister K. Karunakaran to take over Raja’s High School at Chirakkal in Kannur.
Mr. Sudhakaran said an account of the money collected by the trust will be given to the VACB. “The media should investigate who Prashant Babu is. He is the one who betrayed me to the CPI(M) men who had come to kill me,” he said.
