Accusing the State government of attempting to protect the accused in the Vandiperiyar case, AICC general secretary K.C. Venugopal has demanded a judicial probe into the lapses in investigation of the case.
Addressing the Sthree jwala rally organised by the KPCC at Vandiperiyar on Sunday, Mr. Venugopal felt there could be a collusion taking place in the appeal on the case as well.
“The irresponsibility that the police showed in the Vandiperiyar case is unheard of in India. Critical evidence were destroyed due to police negligence and they set up a protective environment around the accused’’, he said.
