After putting the

CPI-M in Kerala in the dock by his controversial speech that

it had eliminated political foes in the past, party leader

M M Mani has once again purportedly made a similar claim

embarrassing the party further. Addressing a meeting, organised by the CPI-M at Adimali

Pathamile in Idukki district last evening, Mani said the party

was responsible for the murder of a local leader of the

Congress's trade union wing INTUC some years ago. The audio of the speech purportedly made by Mani was

broadcast by Malayalam television channels today. "Our people were involved in the killing", Mani said

referring to the murder of an INTUC leader which was carried

out as a retaliatory act for killing a pro-CPI(M) CITU leader. Though the case had been investigated and the accused

punished, now there were moves to implicate him by reviving

it, he said. Mani also took at a dig at CPI state secretary Panniayan

Raveendran, saying the left ally had acted like a betrayer

in time of the CPI(M)'s distress. Mani then went on to allude to certain episodes of

folklore of north Kerala to suggest that despite being an ally

CPI had sought to deceive CPI(M) when it was in trouble. Mani was removed as CPI-M Idukki district secretary a

couple of months ago and later dropped from the state

committee for his speech at Thodupuzha that the party had

physically eliminated its foes in the area in the 1980s. Based on Mani's "revelation" police ordered fresh probe in

these cases and criminal charges were framed against Mani and

some other CPI-M leaders in Idukki district. His speech could not have come at a worse time for the

CPI-M as it was grappling with the fallout of the murder of

marxist rebel and Revolutionary Marxist Party leader

T P Chandrasekharan in May this year with several of its

leaders arrested in connection with the case.
