THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Senior Congress leader V M Sudheeran has said that it’s the policies by the Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan who handles the Home Ministry that is encouraging violence in the state.

“Shuhaib is the latest victim of the blood-soaked and violence ridden politics of the CPM. This murder is a part of the CPM’s conspiracy to remove an energetic youth from active politics,” he alleged.

He also said that the BJP at the Centre and the CPM heading power in Kerala are competing against each other to kill people, and urged the rest of the peace loving people to organise against the blood-thirsty politics of the two.

Sudheeran added that Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has proved to be an utter failure in handling the home department and that he must leave it to someone else.
