Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has described the criticism from certain quarters against the Kerala Police in connection with the ongoing investigation in the recent kidnapping of a child at Kollam as “unfair and unwarranted.”
Addressing the media during the Cabinet outreach programme Navakerala Sadas in Palakkad on December 2 (Saturday), Mr. Vijayan said that the State police had risen up to its name in the investigation. He warned that unwarranted criticism would demoralise the force.
The Chief Minister cited several cases as examples to prove the State police’s excellence in investigation skills. He pointed out the cases such as the murder of a migrant worker’s minor daughter at Aluva, the attack on AKG Centre in Thiruvananthapuram, the attack on the ashram of Swami Sandeepananda Giri in Thiruvananthapuram, the notorious Elanthoor human sacrifice, and the train arson attack case at Elathur.
