The Kerala High Court has sought an explanation from the government on a petition filed by Malappuram Tirur native Abdu Rahman demanding a CBI probe into the incident in which journalist KM Basheer was killed after being hit by the car driven by IAS officer Sriram Venkitaraman.
Justice AA Ziyad Rahman also directed to issue a notice to the CBI. The court will consider the petition after the Onam vacation.
In his petition, Abdu Rahman alleged that Sriram had deliberately hit Basheer with his car and killed him in his attempt to recover Basheer’s phone which contained evidence regarding the relationship between Sriram and Wafa Firoz.
