The Communist Party
of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist)
cadres killed a labourer, identified as Ramesh Markam
of Masuri village, while he was erecting the boundary
of a Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) camp at Golaband
post in Kondagaon District on June 8, reports DNA
quoting IANS. The Maoists mistook him as
a Policeman.
Meanwhile, the Maoists
triggered a powerful blast on a key highway between
Ramaram village and Borguda, six kilometres from Sukma
District headquarters. The explosion took place just
a few hours ahead of the weekly market held at Ramaram,
the Police said. No loss of life or property was reported
in the incident. However, traffic was disrupted for
some time as a large crater was created by the powerful
blast.
Elsewhere in Konta,
the Maoists pasted pamphlets on the house adjacent to
the house of Maraiguda sarpanch (head of Panchayat,
village level local self-Government institution), Hapsa
Masa, threatening to kill the village heads of the areas,
who were earlier leaders of Salwa Judum (an anti-Maoist
vigilante group). The Maoists also put up a banner on
Narayanpur-Antagarh road, near Raoghat, demanding that
the Security Forces (SFs) be sent back to their barracks.
They also demanded jobs for the unemployed. |
