Ranjan Kumar has urged the secretary of SC/ST commission to intervene in the case of the murder of a young Dalit woman Sandhiya in Tirunelveli district reportedly by a Nadar boy recently and demanded that he be not be given bail until the resolution of the case.
He also flagged the manner in which the Superintendent of Police in Tirunelveli acted in the recent Nanguneri incident where a Scheduled Caste student and his sister were attacked by non-Dalit students from the same school.
In a statement, Mr. Kumar slammed the actions of the police who took ‘selfies’ with Sandhiya’s attacker as if he was a ‘celebrity’.
