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.
