A 15-member team led by Green Movement general secretary T.V. Rajan and human rights activist P.A. Pouran visited the Bhoothivazhi tribal hamlet in Agali grama panchayat of Attappady on Monday and recorded the woes of the residents living in unsafe concrete houses.
The seven tribal families of the Bhoothivazhi hamlet are victims of an alleged financial fraud by a construction contractor with political influence. The contractor, P.M. Basheer, has allegedly swindled the tribal families of ₹13.62 lakh given by the government for housing.
