Hard on the heels of the Indian Union Muslim League’s K.M. Shaji alleging the involvement of Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] leadership in orchestrating the death of Kunjananthan, key accused in the T.P. Chandrasekharan murder case, in prison, the Congress has mounted a fresh round of attack on the left party.
Addressing a press conference in Kottayam on Friday in connection with their ongoing Statewide Samaragni Yatra, Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president K. Sudhakaran and Leader of the Opposition V.D. Satheesan called for an investigation into the death of Kunjananthan due to alleged food poisoning in jail.
“There was no room for another inquiry into the T.P. murder case during the ongoing investigation of the chargesheet. However, now that the High Court has reopened the case, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) should probe the conspiracy behind T.P.’s murder,” said Mr. Satheesan.
