Kannur

In another attack by left-wing goons, a 27-year-old RSS worker was brutally hacked to death in front of his aged parents at Papinesseri in Kannur district, police said.

Sujit, who suffered serious injuries in the attack, succumbed to injuries before reaching hospital last night.

His aged parents and a brother tried to stop the assailants, who stormed into the house at around 11.30 PM last night, and suffered injuries in the process.

Police said some CPI(M) sympathisers have been taken into custody for questioning.

BJP has called for a ‘hartal’ in Kannur, Pappinessery and Azhikode areas to protest against the killing.

Handiavkeralam adds: Police reports state that as many as ten heavily armed Marxist goons stormed into Sujith’s house. Even though Sujith was rushed to AKG Hospital, his life could not be saved. His parents and brother have been grievously wounded in the attack. Sujith’s body has been shifted to the district hospital mortuary.A case has been registered by Kannur police and a battalion has been posted in the area for preventing further trouble in the place.
