The Crime Branch on Saturday commenced efforts to collect evidence to bolster the prosecution case in the attack on AKG Centre, the Communist Party of India (Marxist) headquarters, on June 30.
The prime accused, Jithin, who was arrested a day ago, was taken to various places, including Attipra and Kazhakuttam to recover a T-shirt and a pair of shoes that he allegedly wore at the time of the incident. However, the police are yet to obtain possession of such items.
The investigators are also likely to call a woman leader of the Youth Congress for interrogation. The activist, suspected to have close links with Jithin, was questioned earlier on the basis of information that she had provided the him with the scooter used for the crime. Following the crime, Jithin purportedly returned the scooter at a meeting point in Gowreeshapattom and drove off in his car.
