Saturday, May 05, 2012: The Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing the gruesome murder of former Kerala CPM leader T P Chandrasekharan, today took into custody the car in which the assassins apparently fled after the incident.
The Innova car bearing the registration number plate KL-58-D-8144 was found abandoned near a small ground. The car owned by KP Naveen Das was taken on rental basis on Friday night, police told.
In a shocking incident in the Kozhikode district of Kerala, Chandrasekharan, who was expelled from the party a few years back, was hacked to death by unidentified assailants.
The incident took place at Vallikkad in Kozhikode district on Friday night. Chandrasekharan, 50, was riding a bike when he was attacked by the assailants.
The assailants first hurled country-made bombs at him and then hacked him when he fell off the motorcycle.
