Binoy Balakrishnan, son of CPI(M) state secretary Kodiyeri Balakrishnan, was reportedly stopped at the Dubai airport from where he was to catch a flight to Kerala. “We order to ban the debtor from travel and deposit his passport in the court’s safe,” said a translated version of the order, the report said. Dubai-based Jaas Tourism LLC has alleged Balakrishnan’s son did not repay a loan which has since grown to Rs13 crore. Binoy went to Dubai last week to settle the case. The CPM secretary first distanced himself from the case, but later produced a certificate from Dubai police which said there are no criminal cases pending against his son.
