Mangalore, January 20: “The unsolved Panjimogaru double murder case creates an impression that some influential people of the region might have involved in this barbarous crime” said Muneer Katipalla, State unit vice-president of Democratic Youth Federation of India.
He was addressing a protest rally organized by the local unit of DYFI on Friday in front of the office of District-in-charge minister Krishna J Palemar located at Mangalore City Corporation building here, in order to exert pressure on the government to hand over the case to the Central Bureau of Investigation.
Dozens of residents of Panjimogaru, where a 35-year-old housewife Razia and her daughter 8-year-old daughter Fatima Zuha were murdered in broad day light on June 28, 2011, took part in the protest displaying black flags against Mr Palemar.
Mr Katipalla said that neither the elected representatives nor the police bothered about the issue. “Not a single elected representative so far visited the family members of the victims to assure them that the culprits will be arrested”, he said.
He also threated to hold protest in front of Chief Minister's office if the police and elected representatives continued to be negligent towards this case.
Local leaders of DYFI Imthiaz B K, Dayanand Shetty, and Anil D'Souza were present among others.
