Bar association condemns police firing
Staff Reporter

The government was urged to pay Rs. 10 lakh to the families of the deceased

The Madras High Court Bench Advocates Association (MBHAA) on Wednesday
passed a resolution condemning the police firing at Paramakudi in
Ramanathapuram district and near Chinthamani Tollgate in Madurai when
a cohort was on its way to pay homage to Dalit leader Immanuel Sekaran
on Sunday.

G. Thalaimutharasu, member, Bar Council of Tamil Nadu and Pondicherry,
said that the association had also passed a resolution demanding the
suspension of all police officers involved in the incident besides
initiating departmental as well as criminal action against them. It
also demanded enhancement of compensation paid to the victims.

The government was urged to pay Rs. 10 lakh to the families of the
deceased, Rs. 5 lakh to those seriously injured and Rs. 3 lakh to
those who sustained minor injuries. Withdrawal of proceedings issued
under Section 144 (power conferred on District Magistrates to pass ban
orders) of the Code of Criminal Procedure in Paramakudi and the
constitution of a fact finding team comprising lawyers were the other
decision taken by the association.
