Kanhaiya will come out unscathed: CPI

The Hindu  

A day after the Aam Aadmi Party government in Delhi sanctioned the prosecution of former JNU Students’ Union president Kanhaiya Kumar and nine others in a sedition case, the Communist Party of India said that it would fight the case legally and politically. In a statement, CPI general secretary D. Raja said the party was confident that Mr. Kumar, a member of its national executive, would come out unscathed as the charges were false and politically motivated. I strongly disapprove of the sanction granted to prosecute Mr. Kanhaiya Kumar and others for alleged offences under sections 124A and 120B of IPC,” the former Home Minister said. The Delhi police filed a chargesheet at a city court against Mr. Kumar and others last year, saying he was leading a procession and allegedly supported seditious slogans at an event in February 2016.
