District Collector Snehil Kumar Singh received one more letter in the name of Maoists threatening action against the Chief Minister’s ongoing Navakerala Sadas. Police sources said an intensified investigation was under way with the support of various squads and intelligence wings to track the source of the letter which was received at the Collectorate on Thursday.
The anonymous letter reportedly criticises the State government, claiming that it succumbed to capitalist forces. Sources said the letter mentions the Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) Red Flag to create confusion about its source.
The second letter surfaced when the police were busy adopting all possible measures to step up Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan’s security whose Navakerala Sadas entered Kozhikode district on Friday. Though the first letter was found to be fake, written in the name of Maoists, security arrangements were tightened in Kozhikode district in view of the Chief Minister’s programme.
