Almost
three months after CPI-M headquarters here was attacked using a
'cracker', a Youth Congress worker was arrested by the Crime Branch
police on Thursday.
The Congress party pointed out that
this was nothing but a ploy to divert attention from the Rahul
Gandhi-led Bharat Jodo yatra which is making waves after it entered the
state on September 11.
Jithin, a local Youth Congress worker
attached to the Attipara party unit on the outskirts of
Thiruvananthapuram, is being questioned by the police probe team since
Thursday morning.
Soon after the so called 'bomb' attack as
claimed by the CPI-M took place on June 24, the Left Democratic Front
convenor and veteran CPI-M leader E.P. Jayarajan said this was done by
the Congress party.
This created a huge furore with the Congress
party, which hit back at the allegation very strongly. Thereafter as
several weeks passed, Pinarayi Vijayan-led state government came under
fire for being unable to track down the person who did it.
This
'attack' became the centre of attraction in the social media and
numerous hilarious trolls also came out, putting the otherwise agile
Kerala Police on the back foot.
Shafi Parambil , a three-time
Congress legislator and President of Youth Congress, on Thursday hit
back at the CPI-M and the police for coming out with a drama over the
arrest.
"This arrest is nothing but a ploy to divert the
attention that the Rahul yatra is getting every day in the state and the
CPI-M has been rattled. This custody is nothing but a stage managed
ploy undertaken by the CPI-M, who are known for engaging in such acts,"
said Parambil.
Incidentally, soon after the incident took place
in June, the police had taken Jithin into custody and after questioning
for long let him away.
According to sources in the know of things, in all likelihood, Jithin will be produced before a local court later in the day.
