Case filed against eight in connection with Kalabhavan Mani's death




The mystery surrounding the death of actor Kalabhavan Mani still continues. The presence of a chemical substance known as Chlorpyrifos –usually used in insecticides found in Mani’s body and multiple statements made by friends and family has further complicated the issue. Various Malayalam media houses have been on a marathon taking interviews of everyone with the slightest connection to the actor. Here is a synopsis of who said what. Jomon, Mani’s friend who brought arrack to Mani’s outhouse in Padi according to police: “I gave arrack to Mani’s friends one month ago. On that day Mani did not consume it, his friends did and I took the remaining back. Mani had helped me financially to complete my studies. It was on February 7 that I gave the arrack, after that on 15 February I left to Abu Dhabi. I don’t know from where did Mani got arrack which lead to his hospitalisation”. RLV Ramakrishnan, Mani’s brother: “There are attempts to make Mani’s death look like a suicide. We will fight it legally till end. He would not have commited suicide. As some media reports say he did not have any family issues. If the liquor was spurious, how did only Mani get poisoned? Too many people have used him for his money.”
Jafar Idukki, actor and Mani’s friend who has been questioned by the police as him he was with Mani a day before the drinking incident. “I had visited Mani that day, it was to discuss about a movie. Some friends were there along with Mani that day. He had beer that day, nothing else. If somebody tried to harm him the it should come out. He will not commit suicide, he had no family issues.” Nimmi, Mani’s wife: “There is a mystery regarding his death. I never knew that Mani had any serious liver ailments. Mani only used to consume beer. We never had any family issues, but he used to consume alcohol due to the pressure from his friends. He would never have commited suicide.” Sabumon Abdusamad, Mani’s friend and TV anchor. Police have interrogated him and there were allegations that he was involved in the incident: “I had visited Mani the night in Padi, but I did not give him liquor. I had left the place that night at 11 pm. We were good friends. All allegations against me are false. If it was an unnatural death, the truth should come out.”
Jayaraman, Kalabhavan Mani’s make up man: “I am not in police custody. I will file case against media who reported that I am arrested. I have visited Mani only for official reasons." - See more at: http://www.thenewsminute.com/article/kalabhavan-mani-death-friends-family-and-who-said-what-40536#sthash.fLvK3KFw.dpuf The mystery surrounding Kalabhavan Mani’s unnatural death thickens as the police probes the possibil...

Kalabhavan Mani’s friend and a psychiatrist at the Alappuzha Medical College said he found the actor... In a new turn in the mysterious death of noted actor Kalabhavan Mani, a highly poisonous insecticide has been found in his viscera samples even as Chief Minister Oommen Chandy on Friday said government was prepared to order a comprehensive probe in the matter. Mani’s samples had been sent to the Regional Chemical Examiner’s Laboratory at Kakkanad in Kochi for testing after his death and the report came out on Friday. The “very dangerous” insecticide Chlorpyrifos was found in the samples, Joint Chemical Examiner K. Muralidharan Nair told PTI. Methyl and Ethyl alcohol contents were also found in the actor’s samples, he said.
Mr. Chandy told reporters in Kasaragod that if the actor’s family sought a probe, government was prepared to order a high-level inquiry. However, he maintained that the present probe was going in the right direction. “Government will take a decision after getting to know the views of the family on the issue,” he said. Home Minister Ramesh Chennithala said the DGP has been asked to conduct a foolproof probe. “All new revelations will be inquired into… the inquiry report will soon be submitted in court,” Mr. Chennithala added. Association of Malayalam Movie Artistes president Innocent also sought a probe and said the guilty should not be spared.
Mani’s brother R.L.V. Ramakrishnan said he feared that his brother’s friends could have allegedly given him liquor and a case for murder should be registered and probe ordered against those who were with the actor during the last moments at his Chalakudy outhouse. Mani was undergoing treatment for liver and kidney diseases at the Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences for some time when he died on March 6, 2016.
Police had registered a case of unnatural death after AIMS doctors informed them that traces of methyl alcohol was found in his blood.
