'No let up in sex scandal probe'
November 17, 2004
Thiruvananthapuram - Kerala Chief Minister Oommen Chandy on Tuesday said there
would not be any let up in the investigation into the 'Kiliroor sex scandal.'
Talking to reporters after a cabinet meeting, Chandy said government decided to
recommend a CBI probe into the scandal following statements from various
quarters questioning the credibility of the special police team which was
investigating the case.
He wanted Opposition leader V S Achuthanandan to disclose the name of the "VIP"
who had visited the sex scandal victim in hospital. The girl had died after a
three-month long treatment for post-natal problems at the Medical College
Hospital in Kottayam on November 13. Achuthanandan had stated that a doctor had
told him that the girl's condition had worsened after the visit of a 'VIP.'
On the question of Industries Minister, P K Kunhalikutty's resigning for his
alleged involvement in the Kozhikode 'ice cream parlour' sex case, Chandy said
as a Chief minister he can take only legal steps in the matter. Government
would not protect anybody in the case and the law would take its own course, he
said.
To a question, Chandy said it was for the people to judge whether the UDF
government's image had been affected or not following sexual harassment
allegations against one of its ministers.
