“Yes I did write a letter... Let the party discuss it,” was how Achuthanandan responded when reporters confronted him with the question whether his act did not amount to breach of party discipline.
Earlier also, the difference between Achuthanandan and the CPI(M) state unit controlled by Vijayan on the issue had come to the fore.
A CPI(M) rebel, who floated a parallel Left outfit called Revolutionary Marxist Party in his home turf Onchiyam in north Kerala, Chandrasekharan was hacked to death in May 2012.
Last month, a special court sentenced 11 persons, three of them local CPI(M) functionaries, to life imprisonment.
Rema had alleged that CPI(M) bigwigs were involved in the conspiracy to murder Chandrasekheran.
CPI(M) had held that ordering a fresh probe would be illegal and politically motivated.
