DYFI cannot be held responsible for Panur bomb blast, says its State secretary

Democratic Youth Federation of India (DYFI) State Secretary V.K. Sanoj has said that while those detained in connection with the Panur bomb blast are local leaders, the DYFI cannot be held responsible for the explosion.

Speaking to the media, he said that while some detainees are affiliated with the DYFI, they arrived at the scene after the blast. But attempts to portray the DYFI as a bomb making organisation cannot be accepted. There would be consequences if anyone is found linked to the explosion, he said.

CPI(M) State Secretary M.V. Govindan defended Amal Babu, DYFI Meethale Kunnothuparam unit secretary, arrested in connection with the blast.
