Mangalore, Oct 25, 2013 : The district unit of CPI(M) staged a sit-in in front of the office of Deputy Commissioner (DC) here on Friday October 25 morning, to urge the state authorities to hand over the case of Soujanya’s rape and murder case to CBI.
Addressing the protesters, CPI (M) state executive Committee member K R Shriyan said that the feudalistic forces in Dharmasthala are trying to derail the investigations since the beginning of the case. The district police and politicians are influenced by these powers and justice is yet to be done related to the case, said Shriyan.
Shriyan urged the state authorities to hand over the case to CBI for unraveling the truth.
CPI(M) leaders J Balakrishna Shetty, Sadashiv Das, Vasudeva Shetty, Jayanti and others were present at the occasion.
