The money laundering case in Kerala is taking many twists and turns. The Enforcement Directorate on Saturday guided Bineesh Kodiyeri, son of Kerala CPI(M) Secretary Kodiyeri Balakrishnan, to be charged for questioning on Tuesday. Last week, the ED had asked Bineesh to experience a COVID-19 test since his second round of interrogation was expected soon. Bineesh was earlier examined on September 9, for about 11 hours. He has been booked by the Enforcement Directorate under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act and reportedly, is also charged under various sections of UAPA (Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act).

The ED had also recently sent him a notice under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act and asked him to give a list of his assets. The agency also instructed the state Registration Department to prepare a list of his assets and to see that there was no transfer or sale of his assets without the agency's knowledge. Bineesh's name came forward when Kerala youth Anoop Mohammed was picked up by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) in Bengaluru.

Bineesh stated that he and Anoop were friends and he had given him a loan of Rs six lakh and another Rs 15,000 since Anoop had no money to return home from Bengaluru. Reports also came out that Bineesh had a role in a company called UAFX, which was linked to the Kerala gold smuggling case. According to reports, Anoop allegedly peddled drugs under the cover of running a restaurant in Bengaluru. After Bineesh was questioned by ED last month, the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) had sought details of his statement.
