At least 10 Left party offices were vandalised as violence broke out in Kerala's Kannur district on Wednesday night over the death of an IUML youth wing member. Police had to resort to baton charge to control the violent crowds.
Widespread violence was witnessed during the funeral procession of the 22-year-old Youth League member, Mansur, who died in a post-poll clash allegedly between workers of the CPI(M) and the IUML on Tuesday.
District officials have called an all-party peace meeting on Thursday to control the situation.
