Alappuzha: CPM is preparing to take action against more people in the incident of recording obscene videos of party supporters on their phones. Earlier Alappuzha South District Committee member AP Sona was expelled from the party. An explanation is sought regarding the incident of threats to the complainants.

Another member of the Southern Area Committee, PD Jayan, has been charged with threats. It was decided to seek clarification at the area secretarial meeting held yesterday. If the answer is not satisfactory, the party leaders can take further action.

The party had received a complaint alleging that Jayan had threatened. Clarification is sought based on this. On the instructions of State Secretary MV Govindan, a commission comprising members of the district secretariat A Mahindran and G Rajamma conducted an inquiry into the incident.

The district secretariat gathered yesterday in the presence of state leaders. When some people raised doubts about the allegations against Sona, the video lead given by the complainants was watched. Soon it was decided to expel Sona.
