KANNUR: The police have filed a charge sheet in the death of ADM Naveen Babu. The charge sheet was filed in the Kannur Judicial First Class Magistrate Court. The police charge sheet states that former Kannur District Panchayat President PP Divya is the sole accused in Naveen Babu's death. The report also clearly states that Divya is guilty. The charge sheet states that Divya's speech motivated Naveen Babu to commit suicide. The charge sheet was submitted to the court after receiving the permission of the DIG.

The charge sheet states that Divya planned to humiliate Naveen Babu. The aim of going to the farewell meeting without an invitation was to humiliate Naveen. Divya arranged for a local channel to shoot the video. The charge sheet also states that Divya circulated the visuals of the speech from her own phone. Naveen Babu's suicide note has not been found. The investigation team also clarified that there has been no evidence of murder that could be found in the scientific examination. The investigation team recorded the statements of 82 people, including Naveen's family members. The charge sheet is about 400 pages long.

The investigation report of the Land Revenue Joint Commissioner also underlines the allegation that Divya is responsible for Naveen Babu's death. There is no evidence that Naveen took or asked for a bribe for the petrol pump permit. It could all be Divya's fabricated allegations. The report also states that Divya made a planned attempt to humiliate him. The report has been forwarded to the Principal Secretary and Chief Secretary of the Revenue Department.

Naveen was found hanging in his quarters in Pallikkunnu, Kannur, last October. The farewell ceremony for his transfer to his hometown, Pathanamthitta, seven months before his retirement, was held the previous day in the presence of the District Collector. Meanwhile, P. P. Divya, who was the Kannur District Panchayat President at the time, who arrived at the function, levelled corruption allegations against Naveen.

Divya's sarcastic remarks were related to the issue of NOC for a petrol pump being started by a man named T.V. Prashanthan in Sreekantapuram, Chengalayi. During the ceremony, Divya said that she had all the necessary information regarding this and that in two days things will be evident. She said she was leaving, as she doesn't want to stand while the ADM is being presented a gift. The next day, Naveen Babu was found hanging.
