Kerala govt decides to recommend judicial probe against central agencies

Thiruvananthapuram: The Kerala government on Friday decided to recommend a judicial enquiry against central probe agencies, including the Enforcement Directorate, which are investigating the gold and dollar smuggling cases.

The decision in this regard was taken at a special Cabinet meeting here.

”The State Cabinet has decided to recommend a judicial probe against the central agencies for derailing the probe in the gold and dollar smuggling cases. Since there is a model code of conduct in force, the commission will be appointed only after seeking permission from the Election Commission,” a senior government source said.
