Police recover weapons used in T.P murder


Tuesday, May 15, 2012: The Police team has recovered the weapons used by the assailants of Revolutionary Marxist Party (RMP) leader T.P Chandrasekharan, who was brutally hacked to death at Vadakara on May 4, near Chokli here on Tuesday.
The weapons (five swords) were recovered from a well near Chokli CMC hospital by police team headed by Thalassery Dy SP. A team of forensic experts is examining the weapons for vital evidences.
The weapons were recovered after interrogating the five accused, who were arrested by the probe team on Tuesday morning. According to the police the five accused identified as Dipin, Dipu, Pradeep, Renjith and Raveendran have close connection with Kodi Suni and Rafeek, the two main accused in the murder case.
The key suspect Kodi Suni, who was in the jail serving sentence in a murder case, was released last month. Rafeek is also involved in some 29 cases, including murder.
According to police sources, Kodi Suni and Rafeek are professional goons, who commit murders for money. T.P. Chandrasekharan, 51, was killed in Onchiyam near here Friday night while returning home on a two-wheeler.
Chandrasekharan, once a prominent CPI(M) leader in the party stronghold Onjiyam in Kozhikode district, was expelled a few years ago after he fell out with the leadership. He later joined the RMP floated by CPI(M) rebels and wrested control of Onjiyam village panchayat, ending decades-old rule of the CPI(M).
