PoliticsKerala HC stays trial in journalist K.M. Basheer's death case
The Kerala High Court has stayed the trial into the death of journalist K.M. Basheer, who died in a 2019 accident involving a car allegedly driven by IAS officer Sriram Venkitaraman. Venkitaraman faces charges including culpable homicide and driving under the influence. The stay followed a plea by Basheer's wife for a new special prosecutor, after the government declined to replace the current one.
