Kasargod, Feb 19: The residence of Kripesh who was murdered on Sunday night is in pathetic condition. The residents in the hut at Periya Kalyot are grief-stricken. One the one hand the family, activists and locals are unable to digest his brutal murder and on the other hand his father, mother and sisters are staying in the hut which may collapse anytime.
The roof of the hut is covered with tarpaulin to prevent leakage of water during monsoon. The house has only one room.
Kripesh, who was living along with his poor family, and trying to come up in politics, met his end due to political enmity.
Kripesh was a painting worker. His father Krishnan, mother Balamani and two of his sisters live in the house. The family which has lost the pillar of hope is orphaned now. It is surprising that nobody noticed the living condition of the family so far.
