<span style="color: #222222;">The Kerala High Court today dismissed a plea accusing ex-ISRO Scientist Nambi Narayanan of influencing the investigation against him by entering into land deals with CBI officials investigating the case.<br />''<br />''The plea was filed by S Vijayan, one of the 17 former police and IB officials, facing a CBI probe for implicating Nambi Narayanan in the ISRO espionage case.<br />''<br />''The petitioner approached the High Court claiming that his complaint filed before the trial court was rejected despite producing encumbrance certificates of several acres of land in Tamil Nadu, &nbsp;which showed Nambi Narayanan or his son as the power of attorney holders. He claimed that some of these plots were sold to CBI officials to influence the investigation.<br />''<br />''Dismissing the plea, Justice R Narayana Pisharody asked the petitioner to produce the actual land sale deeds, as encumbrance certificates did not prove the sale of land. The Court, however, said the petitioner can file a fresh complaint with necessary documents.</span><br />
