Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) office at Kuttikol, Taliparamba, in Kannur was allegedly set on fire and destroyed at around 1.30 a.m. on Sunday.
For the past few days, there had reportedly been a rift between the IUML and the CPI(M) over the inspection and audit report conducted by the Waqf Board at Thaliparamba Juma Masjid.
On Saturday night, a group of assailants, covering their faces, allegedly attacked the car in which the secretary of the mahal committee was travelling. After this, the league office was reportedly attacked. The Taliparamba police have started an investigation.
