PROTEST OF
COLD-BLOODED MURDER OF NALLA ADI REDDY, YERRAMREDDY SANTOSH REDDY, SEELAM NARESH
and ARUN; FIRST OF DECEMBER
The Workers Communist
Party (AKP), Norway, strongly condemns the murders of the above-mentioned
leaders, obviously performed by the authority of the Andhra Pradesh Police
Department.
The official report
from the Andra Pradesh Director General of Police says that the four persons
were killed in an encounter at Koyyur forest of Tadicherla mandal of Karimnagar
district in Andhra Pradesh on December 2nd. Reports from other sources, as from
the CPI(ML) [People’s War], say the four were cold-bloodedly murdered in
Bangalore on December 1st, as they were entering an apartment there. Afterwards
their bodies were brought by an AP Government helicopter, secretly before dawn
of December 2nd , to the forest area in Karimnagar district.
Like several
incidents formerly, this killing seems to be another arranged "encounter" used
by the AP police to get rid of leaders of the CPI(ML) [People’s War] and their
supporters. Nalla Adi Reddy, Yerramreddy Santosh Reddy and Seelam Naresh were
all three leaders of that party.
AKP, Norway appeals
to the leadership of India to investigate these killings; to order a commision
independent of the State Authorities involved in the "encounter". That is the
Central Home Ministry and the Chief Ministry of AP should be considered
disqualified in such a commission. Evidences and informations brought forward by
the CPI(ML) [People’s War] should also be handled in the same way as the
declarations of H.J.Dora, the Director General of Police of AP.
AKP also will inform
the public in Norway about these killings, and is forwarding a copy of this
letter to the Department of Foreign Affairs of Norway.
Yours sincerely
Arnljot Ask
International secretary of AKP, Norway.
