Supreme Court stays corruption probe against former Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan

India

  • The Supreme Court on Wednesday stayed the corruption probe against former Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan.
  • The bench let the FIR stand, so this is interim relief and not a ruling on the allegations.
  • The ED alleges mining firm CMRL paid Rs 2.78 crore to a company run by Vijayan’s daughter Veena.
  • It claims the payments were tied to benefits the Kerala government gave CMRL when the CPIM was in power.
