New Indian ExpressKOCHI: The Kerala High Court on Monday asked the state-run KSIDC to provide documents to prove it had sought explanation from Cochin Minerals and Rutile Ltd over the alleged financial transactions made to the IT company of Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan's daughter Veena and others. The Court was hearing a plea by Kerala State Industrial Development Corporation seeking to quash the central government order directing an investigation into its affairs by SFIO under the Companies Act. KSIDC on Monday submitted before the High Court that it has no role in any of the alleged transactions mentioned in the case and sought to exempt it from the probe. Justice Devan Ramachandran, who heard the plea, asked KSIDC to provide documents to prove that it had sought explanation from the Cochin Minerals and Rutile Ltd. KSIDC has 13.4 per cent shares in CMRL.
