Make public Kishenji’s autopsy report: CPI-M
November 26th, 2011 - 11:16 pm ICT by IANS
Kolkata, Nov 26 (IANS) Stating there was a controversy behind how Kishenji was killed, the Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) Saturday demanded the Trinamool Congress-led West Bengal government to make public the autopsy report of the slain Maoist top gun.
“What really happened will come to light only after the post-mortem report is made public. We think it is the responsibility of the state government to make the report public,” CPI-M state secretary and politburo member Biman Bose said here.
Security agencies have claimed that Kishenji was killed in a two-hour long gunfight that broke out in a forested region in Jamboni area of West Midnapore Nov 14, but Maoists and human rights groups dispute the version.
Association for Protection of Democratic Rights (APDR), a rights group, alleged that the rebel leader was killed in a fake encounter, while Telugu revolutionary poet and Maoist sympathiser P. Varvara Rao charged the state government with “murdering” him in police custody.
The CPI-M leader said the post-mortem examination report should be done according to the guidelines of the National Human Rights Commission and by involving forensic experts.
Asked whether Kishenji’s killing was a success for the Mamata Banerjee government and the security forces, Bose said: “It is not a question of success or failure. A circle is complete.”
