Crime Branch issues another notice against BJP Kerala State President Surendran in bribery case
Kasaragod: Concerning the case of offering a bribe to the Manjeshwar constituency BSP candidate in a bid to have his nomination withdrawn in the previous Kerala Vidhana Sabha elections, BJP Kerala’s State President K. Surendran has once again been issued a notice by the investigative team of the Crime Branch.
It is learned that the notice has directed for the mobile phone belonging to the BJP Kerala state president to be submitted for investigation.
On September 15, the Crime Branch had reportedly conducted an inquiry against Surendran. To disclose more information on the case, the Crime Branch has now issued a notice seeking the submission of the mobile phone for further investigation.
