Mangaluru, Jul 29: The Campus Front of India (CFI) has taken a dig at Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel for his silence over the suspicious death of a high school student from the latter’s home town.

15-year-old Kavya Poojary, daughter of Lokesh and Baby, residents of Devara Gudde in Kateel on the outskirts of the city, was found hanging on July 20 in the hostel room of Alva’s Education Foundation in Moodbidri where she was staying.

Even though the authorities of institution and police are treating it as a suicide case, the parents of Kavya have called it a murder and demanded a high level probe into the matter.

A delegation of CFI on Saturday visited Kavya’s house and expressed solidarity with her aggrieved parents. The delegation assured the parents that the students’ group would continue to fight for the justice.

Speaking to media persons on the occasion, Riyaz Kadambu, a CFI member, accused the DK MP of deliberately ignoring the case due to the latter’s friendship with the heads of the institution.

“Mr Kateel had threatened to set entire district on fire after a youth was murdered by his own sister and her paramour a few months ago. More than a week ago a girl from the home town of the same MP was found dead under suspicious circumstances. However, the MP did not utter a word so far,” he said.

“Kavya was also a Hindu girl. Being a self proclaimed Hindu leader, Mr Kateel must give justice her parents,” said another CFI activist.

A 7-year-old Dalit girl who had gone missing from outside her residence in Tamil Nadu’s Pudukkottai district on June 30 was found dead last evening. 

Police sources said that the body with severe injures was found in a forest area bordering her village. The young girl had been sexually assaulted before the murder, according to police.

Victim’s neighbour, Raja, 25, who belongs to the Pandaram caste, has been arrested in connection with the incident.

While they have included murder charges in the First Information Report (FIR) against him, they are awaiting the post-mortem report to add sections of the Protection of Children against Sexual Offence Act (POCSO act) in the FIR.

"The girl was playing outside her home at 4pm. Her parents then found her missing and her father filed a complaint at the station at around 7pm. Efforts were then underway to find the girl," said an investigating official.

They found the minor's body in the forest area near her village on the evening of July 1. Her clothes were in a state of disarray and her face was severely injured.

"She has been beaten with sticks on the face and injuries are clearly visible. The post-mortem will reveal the actual cause of death," says an official from the district.

Police sources further add that the neighbour had found the minor roaming around the area on Wednesday and allegedly took advantage of the fact that she was alone.

"During inquiry he admitted that he had sexually assaulted and murdered the girl," says a police official from the district. "Further investigation is underway and we will have more clarity once we get the post mortem report," he adds.
