Swapna Suresh, one of the key accused in the diplomatic channel gold smuggling case, was sacked from her job by the Highrange Rural Development Society (HRDS), a non-government agency working for the welfare of the tribespeople in Attappady.
HRDS chief coordinator Joy Mathew said here on Wednesday that Swapna was removed from her post as the organisation did not want to be harassed by government agencies any more. He said the HRDS had persistently been harassed by government agencies, including the police, after it gave a job to Swapna.
However, Swapna will continue to head the women empowerment advisory panel of the HRDS.
