Spin begins to coverup the Nandigram pogrom

Police firing regrettable: CPI (M)

Police firing regrettable but CPI(M) cannot be blamed.

The Communist Party of India (Marxist) on Wednesday described as "regrettable" that lives were lost in police firing in Nandigram, but said the organised elements, which used bombs and pipe guns on the police, have to take the blame.

The spin, disassociating the perpetrator of the pogrom - CPI(M) - from crimes against humanity, has begun.
