ATTACK ON THE TEACHER KRISHNAKUMAR,
RVHSS, VALAKOM, KOTTARAKARA
The opposition LDF led by CPM Friday(30th September,2011) disrupted proceedings in the Kerala Assembly leading to adjournment of the House for the day over the attack on a school teacher in Kollam district. The Opposition demanded a CBI probe into the incident alleging that investigation by state police would not be impartial as there was possibility of intervention from UDF leader Pillai, and his son and State Forest Minister K B Ganeshkumar. Opposition leader V S Achuthanandan also questioned the use of mobile phone (to speak to the media) by Pillai, a former minister, serving one year imprisonment after being convicted in a corruption case. Chief Minister Oommen Chandy rejected the LDF charge and said it was wrong on the part of Opposition to identify culprits in a case when investigation was progressing. Replying to a notice for an adjournment motion on the issue, Chandy said a special police team had been constituted to probe the case and Southern Range IG Padmakumar has been entrusted to monitor the progress of investigation. "Persons behiKerala Chief Minister Oommen Chandy Thursday termed as "brutal" the attack on a school teacher in Kollam district and said government would bring the culprits to justice. Chandy was replying to a submission in the state Assembly on the manhandling of Krishnakumar (47), a teacher in the private RVVHS School owned by the family of former state minister and Kerala Congress (B) leader R Balakrishna Pillai. Krishnakumar was found in a serious condition on the roadside at Valakam near Kottarakkara in the wee hours yesterday. He was admitted to the Medical College Hospital Thiruvananthapuram.
Krishnakumar's wife Geetha, who is also a teacher in the same school, alleged that her husband has, of late, been not on good terms with the school management. In her submission, Aisha Potti, CPM MLA from Kottarakkara, alleged that a conspiracy was behind the attack and only a comprehensive probe by a special police team would reveal the truthnd the attack will be booked," Chandy added. CPM state secretary Pinarayi Vijayan said that stringent action should be taken against the attackers of Krishnakumar who was brutally assaulted on Tuesday night. Persons involved in the attack are from the official level, according to reports, he said. He told mediapersons that names of those behind the attack will not be revealed now.
The condition of the teacher Krishnakumar who was brutally attacked by miscreants on Tuesday night is slightly better. Though he remained in an unconscious state throughout Wednesday, he regained conscious on Thursday. Police are of the opinion that if his condition improves they may be able to record his statements.
Violence erupted at Valakom and Kottarkara on Thursday during a march organized by the students Federation of India to RV Higher Secondary School in protest against the attack on K.Krishnakumar. The police used force to bring the situation under control. A tense situation prevails at Kottarakara. The SFI called for a district wide boycott of classes on Friday, 30th September,2011 in protest against the police action.
