Kerala CPI(M) leader accused of kidnapping daughter's baby removed from party posts

Kerala's ruling party CPI(M) on Wednesday removed leader PS Jayachandran from all party posts and committees after his daughter, Anupama S Chandran, alleged that he kidnapped her newborn baby and gave him up for adoption. Anupama called the move an eyewash. "Nothing will emerge if the case is investigated by the local committee. I want a high-level inquiry," she said.
