Sunday, September 25, 2011: Congress party on Sunday distanced itself
from government Chief whip P.C. George’s complaint against the Special
Vigilance Judge P K Haneefa hearing the palmolein case.
Speaking to the reporters here on Sunday, Union Minister of State for
Home Mullappally Ramachandran opined that Congress had always adopted
an approach that upheld the law and respected and honoured the
judiciary.
The party does not support any such action from any quarters
whatsoever, he said. George had sent petitions to the Governor and the
President raising allegations against the Vigilance judge who is hearing
the Palmolein case.
The judge was deliberately trying to make Chief Minister Oommen
Chandy an accused in the case, the letter alleged. George’s action has
apparently embarrassed the Congress leadership.
