DYFI cadre death: HC restrains police from filing charge sheet

The order was issued on a petition seeking a CBI probe filed by one Shivaprasad AV, who was also injured in the incident that took place on August 2 last year at Kasaragod.

According to the petitioner, even though local police have a clear picture of real culprits, due to high political influence they were not taking effective steps to book them. He also complained that police was going to close the case.

Justice T R Ramachandran Nair made it clear that without obtaining prior permission from the court the charge sheet should not be filed.
