Kerala Court Orders Further Investigation into ADM Naveen Babu's Death

Divya allegedly made corruption allegations against him at a farewell event. The court allowed petitions by Babu's family seeking additional investigation and the production of Divya's mobile call records. Police have been directed to verify claims related to bribery allegations and prior complaints, while a request to record a minister's statement was denied.
