The National Development Front (NDF) has decided to
petition the Marad Judicial Inquiry Commission to investigate the
activities of organisations, including the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh
(RSS), that is involved in many criminal cases in the
state. Addressing a press conference at Kozhikode on
Tuesday, NDF chairman E.M. Abdurehman, and supreme council members E.
Aboobaker and A. Saeed said NDF was expecting justice from the
judiciary in view of the unholy nexus of the RSS, some
police force and media persons to defame the NDF. Some media
wanted poeple to believe the investigation centred on
the NDF, but the truth is that NDF is not a party of the incident.
In
fact, NDF was the first to demand a judicial probe into the massacre of
nine persons at Marad village in Kozhikode district on May 2,
2003. RSS, with the support of some police
officers, is attempting to make the Commission an
investigative agency against the NDF. Earlier investigation by the
Crime Branch had ruled out the involvement of the NDF in the massacre.
The former Director-General of Police K.J. Joseph had said that the
carnage was a sequel of the communal conflagration in January 2002.
This was also the opinion of the Inspector-General of Police (Crimes)
Mahesh Kumar Singla. However, the Sangh Parivar was trying to make the
Commission a platform to pinpoint the involvement of the NDF in the
gruesome incident, Mr. AbduRahman said.
