“Despite our repeated requests, CM Pinarayi Vijayan was not ready to disclose in assembly the offences committed by Allan and Thwaha. Police didn’t even claim that Allan and Thwaha took part in any action. The NIA took over the case only because the CM who is arrogant and egoist gave his nod to the police for slapping UAPA against them,” “Nobody can be branded as a Maoist because they carried a pro-Maoist pamphlet. CPI state secretary Kanam Rajendran also said the same. This government has so far shot down seven Maoists. C P Jaleel was shot on the back,”
