In a dramatic turn of events, an overloaded vehicle was halted by authorities, only for the situation to escalate when a local secretary from the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPM) publicly challenged a police officer.
CPM Aruvappulam local secretary Deedu Balan arrived at Thekkuthode junction on Wednesday afternoon, where the SI was conducting an inspection of quarry. Then, Deedu Balan interfered with police activities and had verbal arguments.
A video of the argument between the SI and the local secretary went viral on social media.
Following the incident, a transfer order was issued to Konni SI Saju Abraham. Meanwhile, the district police superintendent responded that the transfer was a routine procedure and not a direct consequence of the confrontation.
