ED tells Kerala HC it has withdrawn summons issued to Thomas Isaac

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Thursday informed the Kerala High Court that it has withdrawn the summons issued to senior CPI(M) leader Thomas Isaac as part of the agency’s probe into the alleged violations in the financial dealings of KIIFB during his tenure as the state Finance Minister in the previous LDF government.

The agency also told the court that it has also withdrawn the summons issued to the officials of Kerala Infrastructure Investment Fund Board (KIIFB) in connection with the ED probe.

The submissions were made during hearing of a plea by Isaac and a KIIFB official alleging that only personal information was sought through the summons by ED and seeking quashing of the same.
