February 22, 2017 23:17
Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan today asserted every effort was being made to trace the key accused in the abduction and assault of a popular South Indian actress as Opposition parties stepped up their attack on the law-and-order issue.
Four accused in the case have been arrested so far while key history sheeter 'Pulsar' Suni and his accomplice V P Vijeesh are still at large.
The chief minister said police were taking all measures to arrest the two accused.
"Police action has been fruitful and government viewed the matter seriously," Vijayan, who also holds the Home portfolio, told reporters in Thiruvananthapuram.
He also dismissed media reports that sons of a top Communist Party of India-Marxist leader were allegedly behind the attack on the actress.
"In our state, people have the licence to talk whatever they want. We cannot stop them," he said.
