According to reports, Jyotilal, Sultan, and Shebi beat him up over a dispute regarding a job offer at Engandiyur Cooperative Bank. After being kicked on the neck during the conflict on February 1, Amal’s condition deteriorated, and he was taken to Elite Hospital for treatment. Two days before his death, he was taken home as his condition did not improve, and he passed away the following day.
While some party members are calling for strong action, others are making this into a political issue, with the beating case now turning into a murder case.
