Chargesheet against CPM leader ordered

Kochi, May 30 : The Kerala High Court today ordered filing of charge sheet against Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) Leader M V Jayarajan by June eight for his alleged public outburst against the judiciary.

A bench comprising Chief Justice J Chelameswar, Justices A K Basheer and K M Joseph ordered contempt proceedings against the CPI(M) State Committee Member from Kannur.

Mr Jayarajan, who is facing contempt of court charge on the issue, later told the media that he was sticking to his earlier stand and added he had been denied natural justice as the court did not give a copy of the CD.

Mr Jayarajan, at a public meeting, had allegedly made unparliamentarily remarks against the judges after a High Court ruling banned roadside meetings by political parties.
