A Special Task Force recovered a huge cache of explosives from the storeroom of a construction firm in Giridih District on information provided by one Firdaus, Telegraph reported. Referring to the incident, the Giridih Superintendent of Police, A.V. Minz, said the raid, conducted in the night of July 18 at Progressive Construction Limited (PCL) in Bagoder, yielded 1,964 kilograms of gelatin and 15,000 meters of fuse wire. An unnamed Bagoder Police station officer said the explosives were stored in more than 50 boxes inside the room. The storekeeper, identified as Mahesh Madela, was arrested in this connection. “PCL officials said the explosives were to be used for making roads. But they could furnish papers for just 450 kilograms of gelatin and 1,500 metres fuse wire. They also showed four invoices of the same date,” Minz said. A.V. Minz added that Firduas had confessed his links with the Kundan Pahan squad. Earlier, Police in capital Ranchi arrested Firdaus, a 40-year-old resident of Hindpiri, in the evening of July 18 along with a 9-mm pistol, two mobile phones, four SIM cards and INR 2,400. The Superintendent of Police (city), A. Vijayalaxmi, said Firdaus had confessed to his association with cadres of the CPI-Maoist and had provided the Police vital clues on explosives stored in Giridih. “Firdaus is an explosives supplier active in the Bundu and Tamar areas of the district. Besides explosives, he also supplied shoes and uniforms purchased from city stores,” she added.

A 10-year-old girl, identified as Gayatri Kumari, a resident of Ulilohor village in Ranchi, was among two persons killed in an attack by the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) on a passenger vehicle on the National Highway-33 near Tamar, 70 kilometers from capital Ranchi, in the morning of August 17, reports Telegraph. Four others, including the driver of a truck caught in the firing, sustained injuries. The Bundu Sub-Divisional Police Officer (SDPO) Anand Joseph Tigga said around 9am (IST), a group of six motorcycle borne Maoists, armed with self-loading rifles (SLR) and explosives, emerged from the forests flanking the highway and targeted a jeep carrying eight persons and a truck between Duwarsini and Rangaon in the Tamar area. “The rebels, owing allegiance to the banned CPI-Maoist lobbed country-made bombs on the truck and rained bullets on the jeep along a 500m stretch, killing two persons on the spot,” Tigga said. Officer-in-charge of Tamar Police Station, E.H. Siddiqui, said several SLR cartridges were recovered from the spot, adding, “By the time our men reached the spot, it was too late.

Six CPI-Maoist cadres, disguised as pilgrims, were arrested along with 1,100 self-loading rifles (SLR) cartridges after a brief encounter near Silli village on the Silli-Gola road at around 2.30am (IST) on August 23. Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Praveen Kumar said the breakthrough had come after someone tipped them about the ammunition supply. “I have informed my Munger counterpart who is conducting raids to arrest the supplier,” Kumar added, saying seven rounds of firing took place before the six persons could be arrested. Those arrested were identified as Bholo Shaw alias David, Pradeep Mahto, Rajesh Kumar Mahto, Prafulla Kumar Mahto, Mandal Das and Murari Hussian. Except Pradeep and Hussain, all were dressed as pilgrims visiting Baidyanath Dham during Shravan Mela (religious fair). Pradeep, riding the motorcycle, was escorting the ammunition-laden car, driven by Hussain, in which the other four were also traveling. Kumar said that Pradeep was arrested first near the village, about 40 kilometres from Ranchi. “After interrogation, Pradeep divulged the information and we targeted the car,” he added. The cartridges, supposed to be handed over to Maoist ‘sub-zonal’ commander Kundan Pahan were carried from Munger in Bihar in a car escorted by a motorcycle. Kumar said Bholo alias David was a key member of the Pahan group. “He has been active in Bundu and Tamar for the past four years and can be called Kundan’s right hand. He is wanted in at least 12 cases registered in Bundu and Tamar police stations,” he added.

Four Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres were killed and three others arrested during an encounter with the Security Forces (SFs) at Jonha, about 40 kilometres from capital Ranchi, Police said on October 25, according to ANI. Following a tip off about Maoists’ movement taking place towards Purulia District in the neighbouring State of West Bengal, the SFs laid a trap by putting blockades at various places.

We were successful near Jonha area where following an encounter four Maoists were killed, though we have only found one body. The search operation is on to find rest of the Maoists.

In addition, Police on November 14 neutralised a base camp of the Maoists at Sarjamurmu forest located on the border of Angara and Namkum Police Stations in Ranchi District. The Maoists had, however, deserted the camp two days ago. The Police recovered some camouflaged fatigues, medicine packets, Maoist literature, books on jungle warfare tactics and a few maps from the camp located on a hillock about 40 metres in height. Earlier in the evening of November 13, the Police had arrested two women Maoists and a sympathizer who supplied provisions to the insurgents at their base camp. The supplier, Goverdhan Munda, was coming from the base camp along with the two women cadres, Sulochana Munda and Sangeeta Munda, when they were arrested. The three persons, who were on their way to Angara, told the Police that about 80 Maoists stayed at the base camp. Ranchi Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Praveen Kumar said,” Sulochana Munda is the wife of Sanjay Pramanik alias Doctorji, the third-in-command of Platoon-39 of the CPI-Maoist. On the basis of revelations made by the arrested persons, the Police raided the base camp on Saturday." He added that Pramanik, who led a local guerrilla squad, a sub-group of Platoon-39, was wanted in connection with several high-profile cases executed by the CPI-Maoist in the past couple of years. "Pramanik earned the sobriquet of Doctorji since he was a para-medical staff and had been running a clinic at Bundu for the past two-and-a-half year. Later, he became an active member of the guerrilla squad," the SSP said. The SSP said that the arrested women cadres have given vital information to the Police about the whereabouts of the members of the guerrilla squad, adding, "We hope to make more arrests soon." Talking about the whereabouts of guerrilla squad leader Kundan Pahan, the SSP said that he (Pahan) managed to escape under the cover of darkness following a fierce encounter with the Police at Angara on October 25.
