HC order for further probe may end propaganda war by political rivalsIt will take some more time for the battle over the investigations into the political murder of Mohammad Fazal at Thalassery to run its course. The case is set to be in the spotlight again with the Kerala High Court’s order on Wednesday for a further probe into it by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). The further investigation is expected to bring under the scanner the ‘disclosures’ that gave the new twists to the case. Subeesh had later retracted his alleged confession stating that he was tortured by the police into making the confession. The CPI(M) expectedly stepped up its demand for further probe, for the arraignment of its leaders Karayi Rajan and Karayi Chandrashekaran was an embarrassment to the party.
