The Kerala government has extended the suspension of Additional Director General of Police M R Ajith Kumar by 120 days, following allegations that he interfered with an investigation into an assault case involving opposition activists. Ajith Kumar was initially suspended on July 24, 2023, after a Special Investigation Team found evidence suggesting he had attempted to influence investigators handling the case.
The extension keeps him away from official duties while proceedings concerning the alleged manipulation of police investigation records remain unresolved. The allegations concern an incident at Alappuzha on December 15, 2023, when Kerala Students Union and Youth Congress activists were allegedly assaulted by members of the then chief minister’s security contingent.
