Cong, BJP urge end to over 750-day strike by Kerala youth
"We want CBI probe", she said.
Congress parliamentarians from Kerala Shashi Tharoor and K.C. Venugopal met Union home minister Rajnath Singh and Jitendra Singh, minister of state for home on Monday to press for a CBI enquiry. Mr Singh assured that the probe will be ordered immediately.
"Most of us Malayalis had ignored his fight for this long; so I thought I must meet him rather than post a message on social media", Thomas told reporters. He, however, pointed out that the plea to suspend the police officers accused in the case has not been accepted.
Meanwhile, Sreejith said that he would withdraw from the strike only if the order on CBI inquiry was out. The chief minister reportedly spoke to AG and directed him to take immediate steps for getting the stay vacated.
A dentist said she came all the way from Kollam to state capital Thiruvananthapuram, 65 kilometres apart, to support the man who has been seeking justice for the alleged custodial death of his brother. In a tweet, Tharoor said the Home Minister had agreed that custodial deaths should always be inquired into. When this issue came to our notice, we sent a letter to CBI demanding a probe into the matter. "I read about Sreejith on social media while in Dammam. I will work with that conviction", he said.

Sreejith's mother Ramani P was seen sitting next to him, surrounded by a group of young people.
On New Year's eve, R.P. Sivakumar, an influential blogger, posted about the plight of this former body-building enthusiast, now reduced to a thin frame and suffers from chronic ulcer because of occasional hunger strikes. The CBI had earlier turned down the government's request citing case load.
This comes only a day after a massive unorganised protest rally that was carried out in Thiruvananthapuram, after an active online campaign began in support of Sreejith a few days ago. Sreejeev had died in custody during the tenure of the UDF Government.
Sreejiv died on May 21, 2014, after he was taken into police custody on robbery charges. Two days later the youth succumbed to his injuries at the Medical College hospital. However, the State Police Complaints Authority had found that Sreejiv was tortured and poisoned to death by the then Parassala CI Gopakumar and ASI Philipose. Strong action should be taken against the real culprits. To provide some relief to the victim's family, the authority, headed by retired High Court judge K Narayana Kurup, had asked the government to pay compensation of Rs 10 lakh.
