In a fresh row, Swapna Suresh, the prime accused in the UAE diplomatic baggage gold smuggling case, has accused three top Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] leaders of sexual misconduct.
In an exclusive television interview on Friday, Swapna Suresh has levelled strong accusations against three top political executives in the previous Pinarayi Vijayan government, including two Ministers, for censure.
According to Swapna, while two leaders — former State Minister and incumbent MLA Kadakampally Surendran and former Speaker- P. Sreeramakrishnan — made direct moves and sent lewd messages to her, former Finance Minister Thomas Isaac invited her to the picturesque tourist hill station in Munnar.
She accused the persons of prurient behaviour, including sending unprompted salacious messages and soliciting sex. It’s been over 12 hours since she publicly named the three leaders, but there is total silence from the ruling CPI-M.
She made these statements during an interview with Asianet News Channel. Swapna said that her appointment at the Space Park was to earn a commission. Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, daughter Veena Vijayan and Sivasankar appointed her after discussion. Swapna alleged that even though the evidence was given to the enforcement, they were also influenced by the Chief Minister.
