Subject: [humanrights-movement:5725] Koodankulam Crisis: Letter from SP
Udayakumar
"..On March 21, my mother had received a phone call from one advocate by the
name T. Udayakumar and he claimed he was calling from the DGP office in
Chennai. He asked my mother to ask me to leave the protest so that all the
cases against me would be dropped and I would get whatever I ask for. My mother
told him that I was not a man of that nature and ended the conversation. That
evening the Superintendent of Police of Tirunelveli District called me on my
mobile and asked me to surrender alone so that people would not be affected. I
told him that I was all ready for that but the people here at Idinthakarai also
wanted to get arrested along with me and they would not let me go alone. I
proposed to the SP to send enough number of buses and two police officers so
that there would not be any stampede or tussle and we all would board the buses
peacefully and go wherever they wanted us to go. He would not accept that
proposition and said in anger: “This is the last time I talk to you.” There
ended our conversation.
That night the police officer who was on security duty at our SACCER
Matriculation School outside Nagercoil town had received a phone call from the
Kanyakumari District SP office to go away from the school. Then a group of
vandals, obviously with the blessings of the police, had entered the school and
destroyed it very badly. The compound wall was completely demolished and the
gate damaged. They ransacked the school bus after tearing down the car shed’s
iron shutters. They had entered the KG classrooms and destroyed all the small
little chairs which my children were using to sit on. They had broken all the
tables and chairs and I do not understand why they punished my little children
like this. The vandals had entered our school library and destroyed all the 12
glass bookshelves and tables and threw away the books. My 250 children are all
avid readers and have been using our library extensively. This reminds me of
the burning of the Public Library at Jaffna a few years ago..."
