Opposition leader VD Satheesan on Saturday came out strongly against the CPI-M on its attitude towards former Kannur district panchayat president PP Divya, accused in the case related to the suicide of ADM Naveen Babu.
Divya filed the anticipatory bail plea after police registered a case alleging that her remarks at a farewell function contributed to Naveen's suicide.
The investigation concluded that ADM Naveen Babu's issuance of the NOC for the petrol pump at Chengalai in Kannur was legally sound. According to official sources, there were no statements or evidence suggesting that the former ADM intentionally delayed processing the file related to the NOC.
