The Solar Commission
on Thursday issued a non-bailable arrest warrant against Saritha Nair, the
prime accused in the scam, for not attending the trial despite repeated
warnings.
The commission has
directed her to appear before the commission by June 27 or else she would face
arrest.
Saritha, who has been
giving unknown reasons for her non-appearance, had earlier failed to appear
before the commission four time.
The solar scam
surfaced when Saritha Nair and her business partner Biju
Radhakrishnan were arrested in 2013 on charges of cheating numerous investors,
who paid money for solar panels.
Deposing before
Justice Sivarajan Commission, which is probing the solar scam, Nair had earlier
accused former Kerala chief minister Oommen Chandy and his Cabinet colleague
Arayadan Mohammed of accepting a bribe of Rs. 1.9 crore.
The case took a
political turn with the arrest of one of Chandy's close aides, who has alleged
links with the accused. Two other employees in his personal staff are also
under the scanner in connection with the scam.
