Kochi: In a significant move, the Directorate of Enforcement (ED) has started a probe into a money laundering case against Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan’s daughter T Veena, media reports.
The Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) is already engaged in investigation into Veena’s defunct IT company Exalogic getting money from Kochi-based rutile mining company CMRL for services
provided by Exalogic for services offered by the IT company.
On the other hand, it was found by the central agency that Exalogic had received money without providing any services to CMRL.
The SFIO had sent notices to Exalogic seeking documents related to the financial transactions by March 15.
Many firms in Kerala have received notices from the SFIO, which has found some outfits having significant financial dealings with Exalogic, the reports said.
