Radical Islamic organization PFI creates a hitlist, more than 100 BJP and RSS activists were shortlisted

Kochi, April 29: In a shocking development, Kerala police revealed that members of the radical Islamic organisation, Popular Front of India (PFI) had created a hitlist on which they had shortlisted the names of at least 100 BJP and RSS leaders for murder. This revelation came during the investigation into the murder of RSS activist SK Srinivasan.

 

 

 

During the investigation, police accessed such a hitlist from the mobile phones of the PFI members who were accused in the RSS activist SK Sreenivasan murder case. As per the local media reports, the list also included the names of BJP state general secretary C Krishnakumar and BJP youth leader Prasanth Sivan. The deceased Sreenivasan was also on the PFI’s list.

 

It should be noted that a senior Rashtriya Swayam Sevak (RSS) leader, Sreenivasan, was hacked to death in broad daylight in Kerala’s Palakkad on April 16. He was murdered by a group of 5-6 PFI activists who arrived on three bikes.

 

To date, police have arrested 13 people including 4 members of an Islamic organisation. Of the four, Abdul Rehman and Firoz are directly involved in the attack, while the other two – Basith and Rishil – identified the target.

 

During the investigation, the accused PFI members also disclosed that they wanted to attack the BJP and RSS leaders as retaliation for the alleged killing of PFI member Zubair. Reportedly, the PFI senior leadership also had knowledge of such attacks on the BJP leaders.
