CBI begins probe into Cheriyathura Police firing
The CBI has started a probe into the source of the explosives used in the Cheriyathura riot that led to a police firing on May 17, 2009. Six people were killed in the incident.
The forensic department had recovered highly explosive material, Neogel, from Cheriyathura soon after the incident.
The CBI team has been entrusted with the task of finding the source of explosives as the police suspected the involvement of some outfits outside the state in the incident.
The CBI team from Mumbai reached the capital on Friday and met crime branch ADGP Vinson M Paul.
Important documents including the case diary has been handed over to the CBI. The investigation team is headed by P Satish Daggar, assistant superintendent of police.
