In a setback for the CPI(M)-led LDF government, a Kerala court on
Saturday Dec 24,2016 rejected the discharge petition of Electricity Minister MM Mani
in the Anchery Baby murder case.
The development has put Mani’s future as minister in the LDF cabinet in trouble. Mani has been named the second accused in the case while Pampupara Kuttan and O G Madanan have been named first and third accused.
Mani was inducted into the cabinet last month after CPM central committee member E P Jayarajan was forced to quit following allegations that he appointed close relatives as heads and senior officials of PSUs.
The Thodupuzha additional district and sessions court also agreed the prosecution request to include CPM Idukki district secretary K K Jayachandran, CITU leader K K Damodaran in the list of accused persons in the case.
