CPM branch secretary suspended for threatening expatriate businessman

KOLLAM: The CPM has suspended the branch secretary who threatened an expatriate. The party has taken action against CPM Mukundapuram branch secretary Biju Sreenithyam. The CPM Kollam district leadership said that Biju had not done anything wrong and false propaganda is being waged against the branch secretary for not helping to clear a piece of land. But with the intervention of the state leadership, action was taken against Biju.

Expat complained that the branch secretary threatened after he didn't donate money for a martyr's memorial. A complaint was also lodged with the Chief Minister in this regard. But Biju's explanation was that he only asked for the money the businessman had promised to pay two years ago. The area leadership had also responded that the expatriate businessman might have misunderstood the situation.
