A civil police officer attached to the Karimannur police station was dismissed from service for allegedly leaking out details of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh/ Bharatiya Janata Party leaders in the district to a Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI) leader through the official domain. The officer was identified as Anas P.K.
Last month, a show-cause notice was issued to him to explain reasons for not dismissing him from service. According to police sources, his reply was not satisfactory and he was terminated from service. Idukki Police Chief R. Karuppaswami issued the termination notice to him.
The issue came to light on December 3 when a staff of a Kerala State Road Transport Corporation was brutally attacked by SDPI workers while travelling on a bus for sharing a religious item on social media.
