COOCH BEHAR, June 16: Activists of the Cooch Behar district unit of the Trinamul Congress staged a demonstration at the office of the superintendent of police in Cooch Behar today. They demanded unconditional withdrawal of cases against Trinamul Congress supporters who were arrested after the recently concluded panchayat elections. They also demanded steps against the CPI-M to draw an end to the atrocities on the Trinamul workers in the rural areas.
Prior to submission of a memorandum containing their demands the Trinamul Youth Congress supporters took out a slogan-shouting rally in the town.
President of the district TYC, Kumar Rajib Narayan said the CPI-M unleashed a reign of terror in association with police in rural areas after the elections. A section of the district police is working under instruction of the CPI-M leaders. This should not be allowed in any democratic system, he said.
In the memorandum a few recent examples were pointed out. The murder of Debabrata Pramanik and bullet injury of two others at Nakkatigachh in Tufanganj on 11 June, killing of Safiar Rahman of Pundibari on 11 June, murder of Abu Bakkar Siddiqi of Deocharai in Tufanganj on 13 June and armed attacks on villagers in Nakkatigachh and Deocharai villages on yesterday were mentioned in the memorandum.
Mr Narayan said they demanded the SP to initiate proper inquiry and legal steps against the offenders. Otherwise the situation may turn out of control, he warned. []
