The State Human Rights Commission will conduct an investigation into the allegations of the land mafia usurping the land of tribespeople in Attappady.

Human Rights Commission member K. Baijunath said that the commission’s investigation wing would conduct the inquiry. He ordered the investigation after examining the complaints of tribal land grabbing during a sitting held at Agali, Attappady, on Wednesday.

The commission asked the District Health department to submit a comprehensive report about the schemes being implemented for the tribespeople of Attappady. The report should be submitted at the next sitting of the commission.
