Bhopal:
Popular Front of India, (PFI), Chairman Abdur Rahiman has condemned
the discriminatory and anti-democratic atrocities of Kerala Police
against the Organisation in the state. To raid the State Head
Quarters of an Organisation in connection with a local incident is a
threat to the fundamental civil and democratic rights as well as
freedom of the organization, he charged.
A Press statement issued by PFI’s media secretary said the
Government should clarify whether this is a part of their policy.
Instead of proper investigation in the local incident, now they are
purposefully terrorizing the situation and trying to tarnish the
image of Popular Front and indirectly the Muslim youth with the
support of a section of the media on false grounds.
The police in certain parts of the Kerala state blatantly violated
the Supreme Court instructions on arrest and custody. It is very
serious that some communal and anti-Muslim factions within the
police and the administration are influencing the enquiry. There are
many instances where Human Rights of citizens are openly violated.
Moreover, in the light of forthcoming elections, it is suspected
that the Government facilitates communal polarization for their
benefit through the dirty politics. Popular Front will fight against
this legally and politically., the statement stated.
Regarding the attack on a teacher, who prepared a question paper
abusing the name of the Prophet, Popular Front has already clarified
its stand that it has no involvement in the incident and in case any
of its members is found involved, the organisation will take strict
disciplinary action. Moreover, Kerala State leaders already offered
all cooperation to the authorities for the investigation, the
statement added.
Instead of earnest endeavors for tracing the accused, now the
concerned authorities follows unusual steps which are more divisive
and targetted. To protect the political vested interests of the
ruling party, they are misusing the police forces. It is to be
clarified that how the enquiry become more focused on an
organisation rather than the incident of abuse on the name of
Prophet. If a minute percentage of the present vigor and rigor was
shown by the Kerala police to search the armed camps of CPM and BJP
in Kannur and other Districts of Kerala, a major percentage of the
law and order problems of the State would have been solved.
The Chairman challenged the authorities that, whether they are ready
to examine the crime records of Kerala State for the last 20 years
and find out the involvement of members of each party in criminal
activities. If so, there will be nobody to compete with CPM and BJP
in this race.
The Chairman reminded the authorities that these atrocities will not
help them reduce the massive support of Popular Front. The efforts
for the empowerment of the downtrodden masses will continue, he
asserted.
