Threats – Journalists

The Kerala Union of Working Journalists (KUWJ) State Committee has strongly condemned the provocative slogans raised by CPI(M) workers in Wandoor, which included a threat to amputate the hand of MediaOne Managing Editor C Dawood.

During a protest rally on Thursday organised by the CPI(M) Vandur Area Committee, protesters hurled derogatory abuses at journalist C Dawood, accusing him of “spreading lies” about the party.

Among those present was CPI(M) Vandur Area Secretary B.M. Razaq, who, along with others, went so far as to threaten, “If you do so again, we will cut off your hands.”
