Messi Proposed Visit Row: Kerala BJP Demands CBI Probe Into Alleged Financial Irregularities
The Bharatiya Janata Party: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Friday demanded a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into the alleged Messi event fraud linked to Reporter TV and its owners, even as the former Finance Minister and CPI-M leader K.N. Balagopal refused to answer questions on alleged GST dues connected with the visit of football superstar Lionel Messi to Kerala in 2025, which failed to take place.
State BJP General Secretary S. Suresh demanded that the V.D. Satheesan government hand over the investigation to the CBI, saying that the controversy had international dimensions involving Argentina, Embassies, apart from alleged financial irregularities.
He alleged that the state government's name had been misused in the proposed Messi event and called for a comprehensive probe into the financial transactions involved.
