THE Enforcement Directorate has served a show cause notice to Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, former finance minister T M Thomas Isaac, and the CM’s chief principal secretary K M Abraham over alleged infractions in the issue of masala bonds in 2019 by the Kerala Infrastructure Investment Fund Board (KIIFB).

- EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE

The Kerala CM is the chairperson of KIIFB, established by the state government to fund infrastructure projects. Isaac was the finance minister and vice-chairperson of KIIFB

KIIFB’s masala bond was issued in 2019, when the regulatory position was crystal clear: land acquisition for infrastructure projects was permissible; investment in real estate business was not,” he said. He also accused the ED of “fabricating” documents.
