Kasaragod ∙ There was a serious security lapse in bringing Shahrukh Saifi, the accused in the case of burning train passengers, to Kerala. The suspect, who is even suspected of having terrorist links, was brought 810 km by road without much security. An attempt by the Kerala Police Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) to secretly bring the suspect to Kozhikode failed when the vehicle’s tire burst and lay on the road.

Initially, it was planned to bring the accused by air, but when it was seen that 6 people would need 88,000 rupees as air fare, the journey was made by road. The driver and 3 police officers were in the ATS team that brought the accused to Kerala. There were no other vehicles or personnel to protect their vehicle.

The group started their journey from Ratnagiri in Maharashtra in Innova. As the footage of this spread, the Fortuner moved to Thalappadi near the Karnataka-Kerala border. Both were private vehicles.

While traveling from Kannur to Kozhikode, the group lost its way and reached Katachira on the Koothuparam road. Fortuner’s tire got punctured at Katachira and lay on the road. The locals gathered around.

After being informed by the Special Branch, a police team from Edakkad station reached the spot but did not use their vehicle. For more than an hour, the ATS team lay in the middle of the road with the accused in the case that gained national attention.

Subsequently, the bolero brought from Kannur AR camp also got damaged when it reached Katachira. When it could not be used, the ATS team intervened and continued their journey to Kozhikode in a private WagonR car.

No travel information was given in any police station in Kerala. The police tried to hide the suspect from the media. It is clear that there was no mechanism to stop the accused if he tried to pass or there was an attack or an accident during the journey. The journey with the accused was fast in a small car. This was also dangerous.

The special branch has given a report that there was a lapse on the part of the ATS officials in the incident and the incidents on the way were an embarrassment to the Kerala Police itself. An official of the team said that it was chosen because it was a practical road for the Ratnagiri-Kozhikode journey.

Mannarkkad ∙ Why was Section 302 of the IPC, which charges murder, not included against the accused even though they were victims of brutal mob lynching? The reason for this is that the prosecution could not prove the allegations of murder. In the Madhu murder case, the court charged the accused under Section 304 Part 2-149 of the IPC. This section specifies that manslaughter is unintentional.

The defense argued that Madhu could have been killed inside the forest by pushing her over a cliff or something else. If they wanted to kill him, why did the accused bring Madhu to Mukali Junction and gather people? Why were the scenes of being brought from the forest and beaten? Why did the accused call the police and hand over Madhu? The court accepted these arguments of the defendant.

The ‘last scene’ theory rejected by the court

Mannarkkad: From the beginning, the defense lawyers tried to prove that Madhu was killed in police custody. The ‘last scene theory’ used by the police, including in the Kevin honor killing case in Kottayam, was raised against the police in the court.

The Indian Evidence Act includes the ‘last scene theory’, which states that those who were with the deceased when they last saw them alive can be held responsible for the death in a murder case where there are no eyewitnesses. In the context of the Supreme Court judgment in this regard, the police have used the ‘last scene theory’ in many cases. the

Madhu was taken into a police jeep with beating injuries, and Madhu ended up with the police; Therefore, the defense lawyers argued that it was death in custody. The doctors found Madhu’s cause of death to be head injury. Death occurs after 2 to 3 hours in cases of head injuries.

The post-mortem report also said that the injury may have occurred 2-3 hours before Madhu’s death. As the prosecution was able to prove that Madhu was in the custody of the accused at that time, the ‘last scene theory’ could not be established.
