KOZHIKODE: Sabitha Madathil, the mother of Alen who got arrested in a UAPA case, has made a scathing attack on Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and CPM.
Sabitha said the chief minister’s statement was that the allegation that Alen is a Maoist could not be proved even in the party unit’s investigation. “Still my son is facing charges. Therefore we have lost faith in the party and administration.
The government's double-standards stand has come to light. What has been breached is the assurance given by the party and the government. We also lost all hope after NIA took over the case.
Now our the sole resort is the court. Alan might have talked with people coming from different backgrounds but he is not a Maoist.
I even begin to think that "had I done wrong by giving an opportunity to my son to read/ write democratically and bringing him up in a secular atmosphere."
The chief minister, who says now that he will allow the implementation of Citizens Rights Amendment Act, himself had said that he would not implement UAPA.
We had the full support of the regional unit of the party but they became helpless with the statement of the chief minister,” she said.
Sabitha added that she feared whether Alen’s jail term would continue indefinitely as NIA has taken over the case.
