Was easier for KIIFB, Thomas Isaac to answer ED summons instead of filing petitions delaying probe: Kerala High Court

In response to a summons from the Enforcement Directorate (ED), Kerala’s Finance Minister Thomas Isaac stated it would have been simpler to answer the summons rather than filing petitions to delay the probe. Isaac's comments reflect frustration with the legal process, implying that addressing the ED's queries directly might have been more efficient than engaging in prolonged litigation. This remark came in the context of ongoing investigations into allegations of financial mismanagement involving the Kerala Infrastructure Investment Fund Board (KIIFB). Isaac's statements highlight concerns about procedural delays and the complexity of navigating the legal system while under scrutiny.
