A group of suspected Communist Party of India (Marxist) workers on Sunday night unleashed an attack against the police to release a party worker who was taken into custody in connection with a political clash in Kuttiyadi. Three policemen and a Home Guard from the Kuttiyadi station who took the man into custody sustained injuries in the attack and were admitted to a government hospital. Police sources said CPI(M) worker A.P. Asokan was taken into custody as the court had issued an arrest warrant against him. He was involved in a political clash between Bharatiya Janata Party and CPI(M) workers in Kuttiyadi in 2016, they said.
The police said a Sub Inspector from the station was also roughed up by the gang. “Case has been registered against 51 identifiable persons. Their arrest will be recorded soon,” they said.
