New Delhi, May 26: “We have a habit of killing and getting killed. So do not try to threaten the CPM. Those who work against the party would be eradicated again. The party does not have any qualms in owning up the murders it had committed,” thundered CPM's Kerala state committee member and Idukki district secretary M M Pani while addressing a party function on Friday, reports ‘The Sunday Express'.




While the CPM officially claims that the case against its leaders in the murder of rebel leader T P Chandrasekharan is motivated, M M Pani bluntly said that the party has a history of murdering political enemies and would continue to do so if required.

Recalling some of the murders in his Idukki district in the past, Mani said the party had finished off rivals in Kerala.

“At Shanthanpara village in Idukki in 1982, the party had prepared a list of 13 persons to be killed after a CPM worker was killed. The first person on the list was shot to death. The second was stabbed to death and the third was beaten to death. By then, worried Congress workers escaped. Then home minister Vayalar Ravi was useless.'' Mani said Congress worker Balan's murder was in revenge for the death of local CPM leader Ayyappadas.

Reacting to Mani's revelation, Chief Minister Oommen Chandy said legal action would be initiated against the culprits. DGP Jacob Punnose has  asked the Idukki district police superintendent to look into the possibility of reopening the cases.
