Congress MLA Shafi Parambil used the time allotted to him for the general discussion on the State Budget to demand a reinvestigation into the double murder of two Democratic Youth Federation of India (DYFI) activists at Venjaranmoodu here in 2020.
Earlier in the day, Speaker M.B. Rajesh had denied the Opposition leave to introduce an adjournment motion for a debate on the issue.
Mr. Parambil, who spoke at length on the case, said a social media post by a former Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] leader pointed to the possibility of intra-party rivalry being the cause for the double murder.
