A few years ago, the police raided the factory and office premises of VV Mineral, S Vaikundarajan at Keeraikaaranthattu to prove a case of alleged export of sand rich in thorium. As the export of thorium in any form is punishable under the Atomic Energy Commission Act, a case was registered against Mr. Vaikundarajan. However, these allegations were not true and the case was dropped.
