Kaapa Jail for Murder Accused in Kerala
16 Jul
Summary
- A 27-year-old man faces jail under Kerala's Kaapa law.
- He is accused in multiple cases, including murder and theft.
- The booking follows an incident near Aluva Pulinchodu Metro station.
A 27-year-old individual, identified as Manu Mani of Nedumbassery, has been booked and incarcerated under the stringent Kerala Anti-Social Activities Prevention Act (Kaapa). This order, issued by the district collector based on a police report, has resulted in his transfer to Viyyur Central Jail.
Mani faces accusations in a litany of criminal cases. These include serious offenses such as murder, attempt to murder, theft, and robbery, with incidents reported under the jurisdiction of Nedumbassery, Kalady, Aluva East, and Kanjar police stations. Notably, he is the third accused in a 2020 murder case in Angamaly.
The recent impetus for Kaapa action stemmed from an incident on April 10. Mani allegedly became the first accused in a case registered by Aluva East police for assaulting a youth near Aluva Pulinchodu Metro station. The altercation reportedly occurred after the youth attempted to record the group's disruptive behavior.
