Then they hacked him with a sword before fleeing the spot. Shuhaib died while being shifted to the hospital.Two more Congress activists suffered injuries in the attack.
The Congress called for a bandh in protest against the CPM’s politics of violence. It said the police was a mute spectator in Kannur where the Left party is unleashing an orgy of violence. The CPM proptly denied the accusations.
Kannur is known to be a bastion of the CPM and has witnessed a spate of murders when RSS and the BJP challenged its domination. Several RSS workers have been killed and the RSS and the BJP have recently organized a massive Jana Raksha Yatra in the state to put pressure on the ruling Left front.
