A Division Bench of the Kerala High Court has directed the State Police Chief to hold a detailed inquiry into how Fasalu Rahman from Malappuram, an accused in a gold smuggling case, secured a ‘top secret communication’ sent by the State Police Chief to the Malappuram District Police Chief.
The Bench comprising Justice Anil K. Narendran and Justice P.G. Ajithkumar also ordered that appropriate action be taken against the police officers who failed to maintain the secrecy of the communication, based on the inquiry report.
The action-taken report by the State Police Chief should be filed before the court on or before November 28, the court said.
