Thiruvananthapuram: Kerala Chief Minister Oommen Chandy on Monday said communal speeches, as those delivered by Hindu Ezhava leader Vellapally Natesan, have never been heard in the state till now.

“He is spitting communal venom and his statement that the government is extending gratis to a brave person Naushad, who died while saving two lives, is most unfortunate and painful and made without knowing facts,” Chandy said at a press conference here.

Auto-rickshaw driver Naushad died in Kozhikode last week, when he bravely entered a manhole to rescue two migrant labourers who had got stuck there.

Natesan, who is on a state-wide yatra promoting a yet-to-be-announced political party of Hindus, said that if anyone has to get gratis from the Chandy government, then they should either be a Muslim or a Christian.

“I happened to read a news report on the tragic death of Naushad… and I decided to visit his house. When I was there, his friends, relatives and those gathered there requested me to help the family by giving a government job to Naushad’s wife and also financial assistance,” Chandy said.

“I said I will do the needful and this issue will come before the cabinet on Wednesday. I feel it’s the responsibility of the society and the government to extend help and it would be done,” he said.

“My government has always taken a humane approach to such incidents and has helped many people, as I think it’s our responsibility and it’s given looking at the need,” the chief minister added.

The Congress and the CPI-M have demanded tough action against Natesan for trying to invoke communal passions through his speeches.

“State Congress president V.M. Sudheeran has written a letter seeking action against Natesan for his inflammatory speeches and that has been passed on to the home department. The law will take its course,” said Chandy.

Natesan’s rally will reach the state capital on December 5 when he is expected to announce formation of a new party.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
