Kochi: The Kerala High Court Thursday rejected the revision plea filed against the special court verdict discharging Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and six others in the SNC-Lavalin case.
When the petition filed by various persons including T.P. Nandakumar came up for hearing, Justice B. Kemal Pasha rejected the plea citing that the CBI can only file such a review petition in the case.
The CBI special court in Thiruvananthapuram had in November 2013 discharged Vijayan and six others from the Rs 374.50 crore graft case.
The special judge had ruled that the CBI had failed to prove the charges of conspiracy and corruption levelled against Vijayan and other accused.
