The police team probing the alleged irregularities in the controversial land deal by the Syro-Malabar Church has submitted a report before the Chief Judicial Magistrate Court, Ernakulam, saying that there is nothing that points to conspiracy or undue gain by Cardinal Mar George Alencherry in the episode.
The team reached the conclusion that the church decided to sell land at six places, including at Ernakulam, in order to repay a ₹58-crore loan that had been taken to start a medical college at Mattoor. The decision was taken after due consultations with the stakeholders concerned, including the church’s finance council.
