Sources said that CPM had instructed Moideen to delay meeting ED officials claiming that the news would adversely affect the prospects of the party candidate in Puthuppally.

The ED team raided Moideen's house and asked him to appear for questioning as part of the investigation into loan fraud and money laundering in the Karuvannur Cooperative Bank.
