KOCHI: Kochi Range IG Sakhare could not find an answer to the question of sub inspector M S Shibu. He immediately closed the file on terminating him from service in the Kevin murder case.

Shibu’s trump card was Sreejith murder case in Varappuzha. Shibu called on Sakhare as a last resort to inform him directly things after a termination notice was issued to him.

He said, “Sir, I’ve not directly involved in the crime. Dereliction of duty has been alleged. I know action will be taken on my faults. Before issuing an order on my termination, Sir, I want you to consider another case. Three from the tiger force under the direct control of SP took Sreejith into custody from his house in Varappuza. When Sreejith died, the cops were suspended. No order was issued to terminate them even after they were directly involved in it. If it is so, justice is being denied to me. There should not be two types of justice in the police department.”

The IG shook his head on the sharp question of Shibu and closed the file.
