Trasladan al comisionado de policía de Kochi durante la investigación del choque con Mercedes

El comisionado de policía de Kochi, S.  Kaliraj Mahesh Kumar, fue trasladado a otro puesto el 28 de octubre y fue sustituido por R.  Nishanthini, mientras la rama de crímenes del distrito asumió el control del caso de alto perfil del choque con Mercedes que involucró al hijo de un juez de distrito adicional. El ministro del interior del estado señaló fallas en la investigación como motivo del cambio.

Los hechos se iniciaron el 23 de octubre, cuando el hijo de 17 años del juez adicional de distrito y sesiones S.  Jayabalakrishnan fue detenido por conducir un Mercedes que embistió y mató al vendedor ambulante de 55 años, Jayabalakrishnan. La Junta de Justicia Juvenil de Ernakulam concedió la libertad bajo fianza al adolescente, mientras que el juez fue procesado bajo la Ley de Vehículos de Motor. En los días siguientes, el gobierno de Kerala suspendió a cuatro oficiales de policía, actualizó el informe policial y registró la casa del juez, y la rama de crímenes del distrito tomó el caso.
