The Kerala High Court has slammed the state police forces’ handling of an accident case in which a young jounalist was killed and an IAS officer Sriram Venkitaraman is the accused, The New Indian Express has reported.
The journalist was killed after his bike was allegedly hit by a speeding car being driven by Venkitaraman who was returning from a late-night party. Two eye-witnesses in the case have alleged that the IAS officer was under influence of alcohol.
Venkitaraman meanwhile was suspended last week and was admitted to a state-run medical hospital’s ICU in Kochi. He has since been discharged from the hospital.

The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
