New Delhi: Additional District Magistrate (ADM) Naveen Babu was found dead at his quarters in Pallikunnu in Kerala’s Kannur on Tuesday, a day after he was given a send-off by his colleagues and the Kannur District Collector, from the north Kerala district.
According to police, Babu, who was supposed to return to his home district of Pathanamthitta a day earlier to take charge as ADM there, was found hanging in his quarters on Tuesday morning, NDTV reported.
At his farewell ceremony, Babu faced allegations of wrongdoing from District Panchayat president P P Divya, who reportedly attended the event without an official invitation.
The District Panchayat president, belonging to the ruling CPI(M), criticised the ADM for delaying the approval of a petrol pump in Chengalai for several months.
Divya accused the ADM of giving approval only two days after being transferred and hinted that she knew the reasons behind this sudden approval.
In the presence of the District Collector and Babu’s other colleagues, she also stated that she would reveal more information within two days.
After concluding her speech, Divya declined to stay for the presentation of a memento, saying she did not wish to stand for it, and left the stage, the report added.
