Archbishop of Madras and Mylapore Rev. Dr. George Antonysamy on Wednesday mourned the death of Stan Swamy, saying, “His repeated bail pleas were turned down as his destiny seemed to have already been decided, even as he was languishing behind bars for nearly a year and denied basic medical attention.” In a statement, Dr. Antonysamy said Stan Swamy’s spirited service for the upliftment of tribal people and Dalits would remain etched in history. “One must say that he silently woke up the conscience of the country against injustices done under the pretext of national security. Until today, all accusations against him remain contentious and unproved,” he said.More Related News
