Kochi: Two police officers were on Sunday suspended for making allegations of terror links against three Youth Congress workers, while seeking their custody in a case filed in connection with a protest following the suicide of law student Mofia Parvin in Aluva.
A senior police officer confirmed the suspension of the two officers who had stated in the custody application that the three Youth Congress workers -- Al Ameen Ashraf, M A K Najeeb and Anas Pallikkuzhi -- who protested outside the Aluva police station, had terror links.
He said the action was taken based on a report submitted by a DySP as directed by the State Police Chief.
A senior officer from Munambam would be carrying out a departmental inquiry in the matter, he said.
The report was sought after Aluva MLA Anwar Sadath complained against the allegations made in the custody application.
Kerala PCC president and MP K Sudhakaran, in a Facebook post, had on Saturday protested against the allegations in the custody application.
