Vigilance closes 2018 case against CM Satheesan; was politically motivated, says Ramesh ChennithalaThiruvananthapuram: Bringing the curtain down on an eight-year-old controversy, the Vigilance and Anti-Corruption Bureau (VACB) has closed its probe into allegations against Chief Minister V.D. Satheesan over the collection of funds in the UK for rebuilding homes after the devastating 2018 Kerala floods. “There is no Vigilance angle in the matter, and the case has been closed. It is now clear that this was a politically motivated case born out of vendetta,” Chennithala told reporters. The Home Minister said he had personally examined the file in detail and found nothing linking Satheesan to any illegality.
