Parambil said that after the CBI report gave a clean chit to Chandy, people who hounded the late congress leader with fake facts from the letter, purportedly written by the complainant, in the solar scam must apologise to him.
“The CBI closure report in court says that there is no evidence to support the complainant’s claims of sexual assault by former CM Oommen Chandy. This discussion should not end without apologising to former Chief Minister Chandy.
Based on a fraudster’s statement there were allegations raised against a man above 70 years, who had been an MLA for the past so many years,” he said.
