A police complaint has been filed by a government pleader against a top functionary of a Kerala-based Hindu outfit for allegedly making inflammatory speeches.

Police said they were examining the complaint filed recently by government pleader C Shukkur against Hindu Aikya Vedi state President K P Sasikala and no case has so far been registered.

The complainant has alleged that some of Sasikala's recent speeches, widely circulated on social media, could flare up communal tension in the state.

He also submitted a CD containing some of the speeches, downloaded from YouTube, besides web links to them.

Kasaragod district police chief Thomson Jose said police was verifying the complaint and the videos.

"We received a complaint in this regard but no case has been registered as of now. The complainant submitted a set of links of the videos of her speeches," he told PTI. The official also said the speeches, mentioned in the complaint, were made outside Kasaragod and a detailed examination was needed in this regard.
