The Kerala police investigating team today arrested four Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) jawans in a case involving the June 10 clash between the CISF personnel and the Airports Authority of India (AAI) staff, which led to the death of a CISF jawan.
Police also said they had registered a case against CISF sub inspector Sitaram Choudhary. It is observed the jawan SS Yadav succumbed to the bullet shot from the firearm of Choudhary.
Kerala police on June 10 had registered cases against 100 CISF personnel in the airport incident.
After the incident, the CISF has transferred 67 of its officers to Bengaluru and Chennai airports. An official CISF statement stated the transfer was a routine exercise, following its established practice of transferring a section of the soldiers every two years.
"This is nothing connected with the melee at the airport," it said.
The nine members of the fire & rescue (F&R) wing of AAI, who were arrested on June 11, have been remanded by the First Class Judicial Magistrate of Manjeri, in the Malappuram district. Sources said 40 officers of the F&R department would be transferred soon.
