THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: DGP TK Vinod Kumar will take over as Director of Vigilance and ADGP Manoj Abraham as Head of Intelligence today. The Director of Vigilance will take charge at 10.30 am and the Chief of Intelligence at 11 am. Vinod Kumar was appointed to DGP's cadre post of Vigilance after Tomin Thachankary retired and got the rank of DGP. The intelligence chief should report to the police chief. Vinod Kumar was transferred because it was not customary for one DGP to report to another DGP. Vinod Kumar, a loyalist of the government, was the intelligence chief for five-and-a-half years. Manoj Abraham was the chief of vigilance since July last year.
