Probe sought into killing of naxal
Special Correspondent
Bangalore:
Members of People's Democratic Forum and other human rights organisations, which held a fact-finding inquiry into the killing of a naxalite in police encounter near Sringeri on December 25, 2006, have sought a judicial inquiry into the incident. They have termed it as a "fake encounter."
In a release, the organisations said that there were many discrepancies between the version given by the police and the evidence they had collected.
Noting that it was the seventh "encounter" death in Malnad region, they demanded that the guidelines of the National Human Rights Commission be followed and cases registered against the police who carried out the operation.
The problem of tribal people in the region had aggravated with projects such as the Kudremukh National Park which had displaced them without providing credible alternatives, they said.
