Kochi: The Kerala High Court has acquitted 13 members of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) in connection with the murder of a CPM worker VV Vishnu in Thiruvananthapuram in 2008. A bench of justices K Vinod Chandran and C Jayachandran heard the appeals filed by union activists. Let us know that the additional district and sessions court had convicted the union workers in this case.  

Now, a double bench of the High Court has delivered the verdict while expressing displeasure over the cases of political murders in Kerala. The high court said that the tragic cases of political rivalry and murder are damaging the social fabric of the state. The court said the manner in which the incident was reported before the court smelled of teaching and gathering evidence from witnesses to prove the scripted story correct. The court said that the prosecution has failed to prove the circumstances against the accused in the case. The court also said that three investigating officers were changed in the case within five months. At the same time, many people were arrested as accused of showing negligence in the case.  

On December 16, 2016, the Additional Sessions Court of Thiruvananthapuram sentenced 13 Sangh workers to double life imprisonment in the murder case of CPM worker VV Vishnu on April 1, 2008. The lower court had convicted all the 13 accused of the murder of the CPM worker, which has now been dismissed by the High Court and acquitted all the activists.
