Kerala Assembly ruckus case: The action also follows the police's conclusion of their investigation and submission of a charge sheet to the court.
FollowThiruvananthapuram: Police have asked the court for more time to look into the 2015 assembly ruckus case. The cops make what appears to be a tactical move just as the case's trial is about to start. The action also follows the police's conclusion of their investigation and submission of a charge sheet to the court. The Thiruvananthapuram CJM court has received a petition asserting that there are various facts that still need to be investigated. There is currently no additional information regarding the petition.
In the assembly ruckus case, there are six accused including CPM's V Sivankutty, KT Jaleel and EP Jayarajan. Former Left front MLAs E.S Bijimol and Geetha Gopi have also filed a petition in the court seeking further investigation.
On March 13, 2015, the state assembly saw unusual scenes when LDF members who were then in opposition attempted to stop then-finance minister K M Mani from delivering the state budget since he was allegedly involved in a bar bribery scheme. The then-LDF members are also accused of damaging electrical devices on the presiding officer's desk, including computers, keyboards, and microphones, in addition to throwing the Speaker's chair off the podium.
