KANNUR: Acting on a complaint submitted by a DYFI lady worker, the close acolytes of murder accused Akash Thillenkery has been arrested. Jijo Thillenkery and Jayaprakash Thillenkery have been arrested. Meanwhile, Akash Thillenkery is still at large, confirms the police.

Yesterday, Akash Thillenkery drew much limelight for his admission of murdering congress worker Shuhaib five years back. The Shuhaib murder was long discussed and debated across Kerala for the dubious role of the communist top brass involved. However, now Sreelekshmi Anoop, the wife of minister MB Rajesh’s personal staff and fellow DYFI worker complained about Akash Thillenkery for insulting womanhood with disparaging comments through his Facebook page. Sreeleskhmi earlier went harsh with complaints against Akash in the DYFI meeting, which is considered to be the trigger point for the latter to reveal and insult her through his Facebook post.

Police reached Akash's home but couldn't find him. His phone is switched off but interestingly, Akash is more than active on his social media and is still enjoying an easy run insulting the complainant on his FB page. Meanwhile, the party is split when it comes to supporting Akash. CPM Kannur district president MV Jayarajan accused Akash as a criminal while LDF state secretary MV Govindan went a tad sharper saying the party knows very well to handle such offenders.
