Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha on Monday said he is considering reopening all political murder cases that allegedly took place during the Left Front rule. Saha said he would get a legal opinion after the Lok Sabha elections. The Left Front ruled the country for 35 years in two phases between 1978-1988 and 1993-2018.
Addressing an election rally at Banamalipur in Agartala, the chief minister said a total of 69 people were killed in South Tripura district alone during the Left Front rule. If they add the records of all the districts, the number of victims will be much higher. Saha emphasized the government’s commitment to seek a legal opinion on reopening cases after the elections.
The government is considering reopening all the political murder cases committed during the Left Front rule for the sake of investigation and justice, he said. We will take the opinion of legal experts on how to reopen the cases after the end of the elections.
