SITs formed to probe 2 political murders in Kerala’s Palakkad in 24 hours
Hindustan TimesProhibitory orders were imposed in Palakkad district of Kerala on Sunday and special investigation teams have been formed to probe the murders of two political workers belonging to Social Democratic Party of India and Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh in less than 24 hours this week, police said. While four RSS workers were among those taken into custody in connection with Subair’s killing, the bikes used in Sreenivasan’s murder were identified, district police chief R Viswanad said. Hitting back, SDPI general secretary P K Usman alleged violence in Kerala is a part of the “sangh parivar’s agenda which seeks to make the state a battleground and isolate the minority community members”. Political murders are becoming a routine in the state and killer gangs are making rounds without any fear,” state Congress chief K Sudhakaran said.
