governor

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The prosecution is also worried whether the IPC-124 section, which has a 7-year sentence imposed on the accused SFI members in the case of stopping the governor at three places on his way to the airport and showing black flags and attempting violence, will remain in place. The prosecutor told the court that Section 124 would not stand if the Governor was not on his way to perform an official duty. The court sought an explanation in this regard, but the prosecutor could not clarify. Judicial First Class Magistrate Court-3 Abhinimol Rajendran will pronounce judgment on the bail plea of ​​the accused today.

The court asked how anyone could commit atrocities against the governor who is the first citizen of Kerala by bypassing so many security systems. Was the police watching with their hands tied? Did the suspects fall from the sky if no one saw them? How did the accused get to the Governor's car which had such security? How could they damage the car? - asked the magistrate. Yesterday, the police did not oppose the argument of the defense that the governor did not go on official duty. A report was also filed in the court yesterday that the police were assaulted. The police report said that if the accused with political influence gets bail, the case will be weakened and the governor may be stopped again.

The defence argued that the accused did not attack the police and that there was only a protest by young kids. That's when the magistrate raised doubts. Vembayam A.A. Hakkim, counsel for the accused, argued that the case was not maintainable as it was not clear whether the Governor had gone to perform official duties. Senior Assistant Public Prosecutor Kallampally Manu appeared for the government. The sixth accused, Aman Gafoor from Thrissur, who was granted a one-day interim bail to appear for the LLB examination, was remanded yesterday.
