CPI(M) workers allegedly attacked a vehicle of Enforcement Directorate officials outside the residence of former Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan in Thiruvananthapuram on Wednesday while protesting against the central agency’s searches in the Cochin Minerals and Rutile Limited (CMRL) case.
The officials were targeted while leaving Vijayan’s house after completing the seven-hour-long raid.
The protests erupted after the ED carried out raids at about 10 locations across Kerala, including the residences linked to former Chief Minister and current Leader of Opposition Pinarayi Vijayan.
Speaking to reporters after ED officials concluded hours-long searches at his rented house at Bakery Junction in connection with the alleged CMRL case, Vijayan said such actions would not weaken him or the CPI(M).
"This is only a beginning. Nobody should harbour the illusion that such actions can intimidate or weaken us," he said.
