SPC seeks report on Congress leader’s entry into Adoor police station to confront accused
The SPC seeks clarification on circumstances that led to clashes outside the station and how Congress leader Sreenadevi Kunjamma was permitted access to the lock-up inmate
State Police Chief Ravada A. Chandrasekhar has requested a comprehensive report from the Pathanamthitta Superintendent of Police following allegations that Congress leader Sreenadevi Kunjamma entered the Adoor police station and spoke with an accused individual. The incident, which occurred on July 11, was captured on CCTV footage and showed a tense situation with Youth Congress workers attempting to intervene and force their way into the police station.
Kunjamma, who is now a member of the Pathanamthitta district panchayat, is alleged to have confronted the accused inside the lock-up. District Police Chief R. Anand has initiated a Deputy Superintendent of Police-level investigation to determine if local police personnel assisted or failed to prevent the breach of protocol. The inquiry follows the arrest of YouTuber Rajan Joseph, who was taken into custody based on a complaint alleging he posted defamatory videos targeting Kunjamma on social media.
