Resentment is brewing among people against a section of police officers in the district in the wake of the alleged custodial death at the Tanur police station.
The Muslim Youth League alleged on Friday that the death of Tamir Jifri in police custody was the latest in a series of police brutalities aimed at destroying “the social fabric of Malappuram”.
The Youth League and the Welfare Party of India were in the forefront to demand the suspension of District Police Chief Sujit Das S. in connection with the death of Tamir Jifri. They also demanded the suspension of the District Anti Narcotics Special Action Force (DANSAF) team led by Mr. Sujit Das in the wake of the revelation by a sub inspector under suspension that the DANSAF members had beaten up Tamir Jifri.
