End use of police force: Amnesty

Amnesty Friday demanded an end to the use of police force against ‘peaceful protesters’ agitating against a nuclear power plant at Kudankulam in Tamil Nadu.

Terming the death of person in police firing on Monday as ‘a clear example of excessive use of force by the police’, Amnesty demanded an immediate halt to the use of force against the protestors and an ‘impartial probe into all reports of police violations’.

Amnesty International India's chief executive G. Ananthapadmanabhan demanded the police drop ‘false charges against protestors and release those individuals who have been arrested on such charges’.
