Kerala CM assures justice and orders strict action 'mob lynching incident'

Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Monday assured that justice would be ensured for the family of Ramnarayan, a Chhattisgarh native who had died in an alleged mob lynching incident at Walayar in Palakkad district.

Describing the incident as deeply disturbing, the chief minister said such acts tarnish the



reputation of a progressive society like Kerala and are completely unacceptable.

In a statement issued by the CM’s office, Vijayan said strict action would be taken against those responsible for the crime.

A special investigation team led by the district police chief was probing the incident, he said.
