    Talking to reporters later, she also disclosed that more details, including a CD, would be handed over the commission in her next sitting. Underlining her claim that she had close association with the Chief Minister and his personal staff, she stated that she had used three phones in” Cliff House,” the official residence of Chief Minister Chandy.

    She also revealed that she had contacted the close associate of Mr Chandy and the former staff of Chief Minister Joppen, who was later removed from the post after the allegation emerged, by making the maximum number of 1,736 telephone calls to him. She charged that Kerala Chief Minister had also stated to her the need for expanding the solar panels in the co-operative sector.

    She claimed that she had met Home Minister Ramesh Chennithala from Delhi, when he was the KPCC president at that time. She also said that she called 50 times to a number in Cliff House while she spoke on 80 occasions to other two phones. 

    Pointing her fingers to other close aides of the Chief Minister, she said she had contacted Power Minister Aryadan Mohammed (80 times), Mr K C Venugopal, MP, (57 times), Kerala Minister A P Anil kumar (52 times) and his PA Nazzer (185 times), Mr P C Vishnunath, MLA, (183 times), Mr Mons Joseph (164 times) and Hibi Edan (51 times). 

    Saritha did not leave even police officials as she deposed before the commission that she had handed over Rs 20 lakhs to police association secretary G R Ajithkumar, from near the secretariat, for which they promised to install solar panels at all police stations.
