Kochi, India - Veena T, daughter of former Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan, appeared before the Enforcement Directorate for questioning in a money laundering case involving her now-defunct IT firm and mining company CMRL.
Veena was summoned by the agency following fresh summons issued to her, after she initially cited health reasons for not appearing on June 12.
The probe pertains to allegations that Cochin Minerals and Rutile Ltd made payments amounting to ₹2.78 crore to Exalogic without receiving any services in return.
The ED has alleged that Veena and the management of CMRL generated 'proceeds of crime' through these transactions.
The case was registered under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act based on a prosecution complaint filed by the Serious Fraud Investigation Office in April 2025.
