Search on for weapons used in the murder of HM leader

The Special Investigation Division of CB-CID which is probing the last year's murder of Hindu Munnani functionary Sasikumar, was carrying out searches for the weapons used for the crime, police said today.
The searches were based on informations given by Subair, one of the accused who was in police custody for the last seven days, that the weapons like sickles were dumped in a canal on Ukkadam bypass in the city after the murder on the night of September 22 last year, police said.
A manhunt was on for one Mubarak and his accomplice allegedly involved in the murder, which triggered communal flare up during the funeral day.
