Apropos the report “Maran stocks slump on CBI crackdown fears” (July 28), the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has been abysmally slow in acting against the Marans. Since the 1990s, the Maran brothers have built their business empire at a most enviable rate courtesy their father/Union minister and grand-uncle-cum-chief minister. The Sun Group’s business expansion was extremely rapid in the couple of years that Dayanidhi Maran was Union minister for IT. In fact, the tardy CBI investigation suggests that the Marans may have lost politically but their money power can reach any corner.
