R. B. Sreekumar

He is known for the affidavits he filed to Nanavati-Mehta Commission and presentation to James Michael Lyngdoh the then Chief Election Commissioner of India alleging dubious role of law and order in the riots.

[3] In one of the affidavits he annexed transcripts of illegal tutoring by bureaucrats to him in clandestine recordings and a semi-official register maintained during his tenure as DGP - Intelligence apart from other evidences.

[4][5] The Times of India newspaper carried an exclusive news item based on his report to the Nanavati-Mehta Commission in which he claimed to have documented the state's connivance at the perpetration of riots.

The Nanavati-Mehta Commission eventually rejected Sreekumar’s testimony, as well as those of Rahul Sharma[6] and Sanjiv Bhatt,[6] saying they were disgruntled officers with personal grievances.

[11] Sreekumar further contended in that petition that he was Additional Director of Intelligence when Nambi Narayanan was arrested, and had no direct role in the criminal proceedings against him, which is supported by the Central Bureau of Investigation report of 2000 during Vajpayee government.
