Alappuzha police have registered a case against seven SFI activists for allegedly assaulting a MSM college staff member during a protest over the cancellation of a student's admission. The student, Al Ameen, is set to contest the college union election. The SFI had nominated him for the post of college union chairperson. The case was registered under multiple sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, including criminal trespass, rioting, unlawful assembly, assault, and criminal intimidation.
According to the FIR, the protest turned violent after the activists stormed the college council room, assaulting staff members to disrupt the election preparations. The assaulted staff member, Ramshad Rahim, alleged that he was choked, hit on the head and neck, and threatened with a metallic object. Rahim was admitted to a private hospital after the attack.
The SFI leaders have denied the allegations and plan to protest at the college on Friday. Police have started tracking the accused and deployed personnel outside the college to prevent further violence.
