A few weeks before his transfer, the inspector was threatened by a man who identified himself as a BJP Yuva Morcha leader.
P Jayarajan gave the controversial speech in response to Yuva Morcha state general secretary K Ganesh's alleged inflammatory speech against Shamseer in Thalassery recently.
Social media accounts are being monitored and more arrests will be registered soon, said Kasaragod Police.
The controversial remarks were made during a protest march seeking action against the CI who they said attacked a Yuva Morcha activist during an earlier agitation.
All persons involved in the conspiracy and murder have been identified by the police.
Praseed Das, Thrissur district secretary of Yuva Morcha, later deleted his controversial tweet.
With this, seven people have been arrested in the case. Six activists of the CPM were nabbed earlier.
Police had registered a case against 20 BJP activists on the basis of a complaint lodged by various organisations.
The opposition parties are targeting the chief minister after it emerged that a key woman suspect in the case, Swapna Suresh, a former UAE Consulate employee, had been employed on contract by the IT department, a portfolio held by Pinarayi.
Prakash Babu is accused of attempting to murder a woman devotee during her bid to visit the Lord Ayyappa Temple at Sabarimala on the Chithira Atta festival day.
