Former Students’ Federation of India (SFI) leader K. Vidya, in remand after being arrested in connection with a certificate forgery case, collapsed while being questioned by the police at Agali, Attappady, on Friday. She was admitted to the Government Tribal Specialty Hospital, Kottathara. Doctors who examined Ms. Vidya said she had been dehydrated.
The Munsiff Magistrate Court, Mannarkkad, had given Ms. Vidya in police custody for two days on Thursday. She is to be produced before the court on Saturday. The court will also hear her bail application on Saturday.
The police had planned to question Ms. Vidya in front of the RGM Government College Principal and the members of the interview board before whom she had submitted the forged experience certificates. However, the police team changed their plans when she swooned and was admitted to the hospital.
