Revision plea against rejection of discharge petition
General Education Minister V. Sivan Kutty and five Left Democratic Front (LDF) leaders have moved revision petitions in the Kerala High Court challenging the order of the Chief Judicial Magistrate (CJM) Court, Thiruvananthapuram, which rejected their discharge petition in the Assembly ruckus case.
Rejecting their plea earlier, R. Rekha, the CJM, had asked them to be present before the court on Monday to frame charges.
The petitioners, K. Ajith, Kunjammadu Master, E.P. Jayarajan, C.K. Sadasivan and K.T. Jaleel, MLA, were accused of entering the dais of the Speaker and causing damage to public property in their attempt to prevent the then Finance Minister K.M. Mani from presenting the annual Budget on March 13, 2015.
