Kannur: KPCC President V M Sudheeran on Sunday refused to react to the media persons’ questions related to the Vigilance raids at the residences of former state Excise Minister K Babu and his two daughters in connection with a disproportionate assets case against the Congress leader.
Asked about the raids at the house of the former minister, Sudheeran concluded his reaction in two words -- “no comments”, before walking away in hurry.
He was in the district to visit the house of Aslam, a Muslim League worker who was murdered allegedly by CPI-M workers.
The Vigilance and Anti-Corruption Bureau sleuths Saturday conducted raids at the residences of Babu and his two daughters in connection with a disproportionate assets case against the Congress leader.
Vigilance officials also swooped down simultaneously on the Ernakulam residences of two of the Congress leader's alleged 'benamis' - Baburam and Mohanan- who have no known source for running any business.
Babu, however, rejected the corruption allegations and challenged the probe agency to prove the charges against him.
"It is an act of vengeance," he said in Thrippunithura. I have no benami business. Allegations against me are wrong. If I have any ill-gotten assets, that will be freely given to the government," Babu said.
