Kerala: Fake Attack in Kollam, Kerala Exposes Orchestrated Incident and Hindutva Campaign Against PFI

A day after an alleged attack on army personnel in Kollam, Kerala, gained national attention and Hindutva handles campaigned against the banned Muslim group Popular Front of India (PFI), the police discovered that the entire incident was orchestrated by the purported ‘victim’ himself. The soldier, Shine Kumar, had earlier claimed that he was attacked on Sunday night in a rubber forest near his house in Kollam and they tied up his hands with tape, and painted “PFI” on his back with green paint, Following the earlier reports, BJP leaders in Kerala and Hindutva IT Cell launched a fresh campaign against the banned Muslim group, propagating that the ‘sleeper cells associated with the Popular Front of India (PFI)’ are active in Kerala, despite the organization’s ban last September.
