Hyderabad: Telangana Joint Action Committee chairman Prof M Kodandaram on Saturday demanded probe by Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) or a sitting judge of High Court into the Alair encounter in which five under trails were killed on April 7. Speaking to media persons after attending a consultative meeting of various Muslim organisations at Nampally here, Kodandaram questioned the hesitation shown by Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao in ordering a CBI probe. He said KCR should not be afraid of ordering a CBI probe if he was not trying to hide any facts related to the encounter.
Stating that the Alair encounter has created a sense of insecurity among Muslims, he said giving extreme powers to police was not good for a democracy. Referring to a statement made by Home Minister Naini Narasimha Reddy claiming that Hyderabad was free from terror activities, he said in contrast to this statement, the State Government, in its GO Ms No 184 on constitution of SIT has mentioned the five under trials as ‘terror operatives’. He said that accountability should be fixed on everyone and guilty police officials should be punished if they had indulged in fake encounter.
