Policemen had behaved in a good manner to me, many had told me that they were doing this because they did not have any other option. However, some policemen behaved in a bad manner and they were CPM supporters. I had not asked for any special facility in kail. However, many officers asked whether I need any special facility. All of them knew that my arrest was injustice", said Surendran.
