Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) State president K. Surendran has said Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan's statement in the Assembly about political murders is a brazen lie and an attempt, albeit weak, to pull the wool over the eyes of the people.
Mr. Vijayan had tried to heap blame on the BJP for the Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] orchestrated political violence. For one, he had blamed the Rastriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) for the murder of CPI(M) worker Sandeep in Thiruvalla.
However, the police case was that Sandeep had died in a violent fratricidal feud between local CPI(M) activists, Mr. Surendran said on Wednesday.
