In another development, the National Youth League yesterday condemned the plot against Ma’dani. The Sangh parivar and imperialist forces are conspiring to jail Ma’dani again based on the words of the others accused in the Bengaluru blast case, said Pulikkal Moideen Kutty, state general secretary of the NYL in a press conference in Malappuram.

Mr Moideen Kutty said that justice should be made available to Ma’dani as a citizen. Ma’dani was found innocent after ten years in jail and hunting him again should be put an end to, he added. The NYL also extended support to the protest actions in the matter.

Meanwhile, the PDP leadership yesterday asked the state government to send a medical team to Anvarsseri as Ma’dani was very weak and unhealthy. Party leader Poonthura Siraj explained that the request was made as treatment would be disturbed due to controversies if Ma’dani is taken to any government medical college hospital or private hospital.

The fasting protest launched by the PDP against the conspiracy to deport Ma’dani to other states using the Benagaluru blast case entered the fourth day today. Famous historian and leader of the NCHRO MS Jayaprakash visited Anvarsseri and fasted, expressing his solidarity with the struggle. Several other leaders also visited the protesting PDP leaders. Jamat e Islami secretary H Shaheer Moulvi, environmental and human rights leader Odanavatom Vijayaprakash etc visited Ma’dani and the fasting PDP leaders on Thursday. Party’s state vice-chairman Varkkala Raj, district vice-president Shaji Pathanapuram and Kottayam district vice-president KJ Devasya are fasting now.

Ma’dani was named 31st accused in the additional chargesheet of the Bengaluru blast case submitted by the investigation team last Friday. The words of Thadiyantavide Naseer and Shafas, accused in the case and now in the custody of police, are said to be the police’s evidence against Ma’dani. Ma’dani was issued non-bailable arrest warrant by the Bengaluru court last day. It has asked the police to present him before the court by 23rd of this month.
