DYFI takes out march to DGP office in Thiruvananthapuram

On Tuesday, the Democratic Youth Federation of India (DYFI) activists marched to the Director General of Police (DGP) office in Thiruvananthapuram, protesting the alleged sabotage of the MDMA case investigation. The activists believed the police were interfering with the probe into the case involving Muhammed Hussain, a Youth Congress office-bearer and social media worker of the Chief Minister.

The police responded to the protests by using water cannons to disperse the activists. DYFI State president Chintha Jerome and secretary M. Vijin took part in the march, carrying a placard depicting the Youth Congress activist with Chief Minister V.D. Satheesan. The demonstrators climbed over barricades and shouted slogans, demanding Satheesan's resignation.

The protest was fueled by the activists' allegations that the MDMA case investigation into Hussain was being deliberately delayed. They further claimed that Hussain had close ties with the Chief Minister. Hussain was arrested during Operation Toofan in Kasaragod, along with 139.29 grams of MDMA. The activists presented their grievances, insisting on a thorough and unbiased investigation into the case.
