Kochi ∙ Mathew Kuzhalnadan MLA has been accused of laundering huge amounts of black money in the CPM arena. In the affidavit given to the Election Commission, he has shown Rs 23 crore as income from the law firm in which he is also a partner in Dubai, Delhi, Guwahati, Bengaluru and Kochi. CPM district secretary C.N. Mohanan said that it is doubtful that Kuzhalnadan, who has only started active practice as a lawyer for regarding 12 years, has earned so much.
Mathew Kuzhalnad and 2 partners showed the price of the property and resort which was registered at the Rajkumari Sub-Registrar Office on March 18, 2021 at Rs 1.92 crore only. The very next day, in the affidavit submitted to the Election Commission to contest in the Muvattupuzha constituency on March 19, Mathew showed that he has a 50% share in this property and resort and its value is three and a half crore rupees. There should be a thorough investigation into the value of Rs 1.92 crores rising to Rs 7 crores in 24 hours.
Some people in Muvatupuzha constituency have complained to the state government and vigilance on this issue. CPM believes that there is substance in the complaint. Mathew Kuzhalnad has offices which even the top lawyers of the country do not have and it is a way to launder black money – CPM district secretary alleged.
With permission of Pokuvarav District Administration: Revenue Department
Revenue department officials of Chinnakanaal said that the land in Chinnakanaal was given to Mathew Kuzhalnadu with the permission of the district administration. In case of tax evasion, it is the responsibility of the registration department to investigate and take action.
∙ No tax evasion
‘Welcome any inquiry into the complaint that land and house in Chinnakanal have been registered under stamp duty. A detailed reply will be given today in Thiruvananthapuram following studying the allegations. There was no tax evasion, everything was clearly stated in the election affidavit.’ – Mathew Kuzhalnadan MLA
