Mangaluru: The December 19 Golibar Justice Forum has condemned the state government's move of refusing to conduct high-level probe into the Mangaluru firing case. The forum has warned of carrying out a movement over this.

The firing and lathi charge incidents of Mangaluru are being described as a pre-planned act. In case it is pre-planned act, investigation should be held to find out who had pre-planned it. The state home minister's statement that had come even before the investigation shows that the State government wants to protect the pre-planners, said Jaleel Krishnapur, convener of Justice Forum. 

Only protesters are being shown guilty of that day's incident. But some CCTV footage of the day's events and video clips being spread on social networking sites have been accusing police of provoking for the incident. In such situation, it is inappropriate to believe police report.

Attacking police or setting fire to police station is like attacking the legal system. Therefore thorough investigation should be carryout in December-19 Cade and facts should be brought before the society and legal action must be taken against the culprits, urged Justice Forum.
