Bouquets and brickbats for policemen

By Our Special Correspondent

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM, SEPT. 3. The Chief Minister, Mr. E. K. Nayanar, today showered both bouquets and brickbats on the policemen who were in charge of the investigation of the Suryanelli case which culminated in the conviction of 35 persons.

His praise was for the officers in the Special Team appointed by his Government, and his rebuke, for the officials who had handled the investigation in 1996 when the UDF Government was in office. These officials were severely criticised by the court also in its verdict on the case. Mr. Nayanar today directed the Home Department to suggest appropriate rewards and punishment to the officers in the respective teams.
