MADURAI: H Suresh, chairperson for the action committee against the
Paramakudi police firing, on Sunday said they had sought a CBI inquiry
into the incident and that the government should set up a special
court to conduct a fair investigation into the issue.

This committee conducted a public inquest on Saturday and Sunday in
Paramakudi and Madurai. Retired high court justice Suresh, Saltana,
former Union government secretary, former vice-chancellor of
Manonmaniam Sundaranar University PS Krishnan, retired DGP of Gujarat
RP Sreekumar and senior high court counsel in Chennai Sudha Ramalingam
were among those who conducted the inquest over the past two days.

Briefing the media, Suresh said since the state police was involved in
the brutal attack against the dalits in Paramakudi, the government
should order a CBI inquiry and set up a special court to ensure
justice is administered. tnn He pointed out that the police created an
unwanted situation on September 11 and the said they detained dalit
leader P John Pandyan unnecessarily, creating the problem.

While the dalits celebrated Immanuel Sekaran guru pooja in a smooth
way on September 11, a small group of people protested against the
detaining of John Pandyan. The police were unable to follow rules and
regulations and allegedly attacked innocent people, killing seven
persons. Suresh said the committee recommended that the government
hand over the inquiry to the CBI and legal services be provided free
of charge to the victims. "Government officials at all levels should
be sensitized to treat all equally and inspire confidence in the minds
of the victims that they will be heard," he said.
