Eight Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres, including three women, were arrested in Bijapur District of Chhattisgarh on February 15, hours after a new Police camp in Gundam under the Tarrem Police Station area was attacked with a country-made UBGL (under barrel grenade launcher), reports etvbharat.com. Following the attack, an encounter took place between the Maoists and the Security Forces (SFs). In a search operation launched by the SFs, six Improvised Explosive Device (IED) bombs weighing five kilogrammes each were recovered. Bastar Inspector General of Police (IGP) Sunderraj P said, "New police camps are being set up in the core areas, resulting in Naxalites [Left Wing Extremists, LWEs] being in panic."
