CNDP Statement: Koodankulam leader barred from attending his father’s funeral by the police
It is heartbreaking to see Mr. Pushparayan not being able to attend his father's last rites as he cannot move out of the Idinthakarai village, fearing immediate arrest by the police. It is shocking that over 200 police personnel were deployed at the funeral of Mr. Pushparayan's father in Tuticorin to arrest him if he joins. Almost the entire village of Idinthakarai, which has been the centre of protests, is declared criminal and people can't move out.
