The Kerala Police on Sunday detained eight people in connection with the murder of a Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) worker in the state capital on Sunday.

The accused have been sent to the police custody.

The State Police Chief said, the Police forces have been instructed to strictly deal with any attempt to create violence and adequate force have been deployed in all sensitive spots.

He also appealed to social media users to restrain themselves from spreading rumours and provocative messages, which would attract legal action.

Earlier on Saturday, a RSS worker was murdered in Thiruvananthapuram's Sreekaryam.

Police said 34-year-old Rajesh's left hand was chopped off in the attack which took place around at 9 PM last night. An investigation has been launched and search is on for assailants, they said.

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has alleged Communist Party of India (Marxist) CPI (M) workers behind it.

On July 11, an RSS office at Payyannur in Kannur was attacked allegedly by CPI (M) workers.

No one was inside the office at the time of the incident.
