Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and Former Kerala Higher Education Minister and Left Democratic Front (LDF) MLA KT Jaleel met at Cliff House on Thursday morning ahead of the latter’s visit to Enforcement Directorate (ED) office to submit evidence against Muslim League leaders on the money laundering case associated with Chandrika daily.

Jaleel is likely to arrive at the Enforcement Directorate's (ED) office at 4 pm on Thursday after he was summoned to record his statement in a money laundering case in connection with the Indian Union Muslim League's (IUML) MLA and its National General Secretary PK Kunhalikutty and IUML mouthpiece 'Chandrika'.

Earlier, the probe agency had summoned Kunhalikutty and his son PK Ashik. In a Facebook post that he wrote this morning, the LDF MLA informed that he met Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and discussed the matter.

"I met the Chief Minister this morning. Things were talked about in detail. The fight to bring out the truth about Kunhalikutty's black money and hawala transactions will continue. The Pinarayi government in Kerala is taking strong action against financial frauds and embezzlement," he wrote.

After meeting the CM, Jaleel left for Kochi ED office. “I will present before the ED office at 4 pm. ED had approached me seeking clarification on my submission in the assembly about a financial irregularity worth Rs 10 crores at Chandrika daily; not something associated with AR Nagar bank,” said Jaleel.
