Two Trinamool Congress leaders of South 24 Parganas district Arabul Islam and Kaiser Ahmed, who were suspended over a year ago in connection with their alleged involvement in two murder cases, were today reinstated by the party.

Islam's six-year suspension was withdrawn by the TMC today during a party meeting here which was presided by district party chief Sovan Chatterjee, party sources said.

The TMC strongman was suspended on October 28, 2014 in connection with the murder of a person of another faction of TMC at Deota.

Ahmed, who belonged to the other faction and was a zilla parishad, was expelled from the party in connection with the killing of yet another TMC worker. He was reinstated today, the sources added.
