Injured in Paramakudi firing incident decline to talk to panel
PTI | 10:09 PM,Sep 28,2011
Madurai,Sept 28(PTI) Causing a flutter, the injured persons in the
recent police firing and violence at Paramakudi in Ramanathapuram
district today declined to speak to the one-man commission by covering
their mouth during its visit to hospitals where they are undergoing
treatment. Those undergoing treatment at the Government Rajaji
Hospital and the private Apollo Hospital refused to speak to the
commission,demanding CBI probe into the firing in which seven persons
were killed, officials said. The state government had set up the
Commission of Inquiry headed by former Judge K Sampath to probe the
September 11 firing on a crowd comprising mostly dalits which had
turned violent after they heard that dalit leader John Pandian, en
route to pay homage to Dalit icon Immanuel Sekaran on his death
anniversary, was detained in Tuticorin district. The Commission
visited the private hospital here, where M.Singadurai (32) of
Paramakudi, R. Siva (19) of Valandur near Madurai and T. Kumar (26) of
Kaattuparamakudi were being treated following High Court�s direction
to shift them there for better treatment. Accompanied by revenue
officials, Justice Sampath went to the wards but the patients covered
their mouth with black cloth as a symbolic protest apparently to
indicate that they had no faith in the State government appointed
inquiry commission. Two persons are undergoing treatment at the
government hospital. Meanwhile, members of the 'Mallar Kazhagam' who
tried to organise a black flag demonstration against the Commission,
were pacified and dispersed by police,officials said.
