At least 15 more security personnel were injured after Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres allegedly triggered a series of Improvised Explosive Device (IED) blasts in Rai Sindri hills under Kuchai Police Station limits in Seraikela-Kharsawan District of Jharkhand on May 28, reports Hindustan Times. Earlier, South Asia Terrorism Portal (SATP) had reported, 11 personnel of the CRPF and the State Police were injured in an IED blast triggered by cadres of the CPI-Maoist in Seraikela-Kharsawan District of Jharkhand in the early hours of May 28. The total number of injuries rises to 26. The ambush comes eight days after serial IED blasts aimed at Security Forces (SFs) in Kharsawan on May 20, at a point six kilometres away from Tuesday’s (May 28) blast. Superintendent of Police (SP), Chandan Sinha said it could be a revengeful show of strength for rebels who could not disrupt the just-concluded Lok Sabha (Lower House of the Indian Parliament) elections in what had been their stronghold. Around 4.45am, rebels triggered a single, medium-intensity IED blast on a kutcha or non-metaled road in hilly forested Kuchai where a joint team of around 2,000 personnel comprising Commando Battalion for Resolute Action (CoBRA), a Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) team specialising in anti-Maoist operations, Jharkhand Jaguar (JJ) and District Police had been deployed on an anti-insurgency operation. As the injured men collapsed, other members of the team retaliated with heavy firing, which lasted for 20 minutes. Inspector General of Police (IGP) Ashish Batra said, “The Maoists triggered more than 15 blasts injuring the jawans. Four jawans are critical while four others sustained serious injuries. The other jawans who were part of the overall team performing combing operations, too, sustained minor injuries but they were discharged from the hospital after preliminary examination.”

A civilian was killed and another suffered injuries after an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) planted by cadres of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) exploded in Bulbul forest, around 50 kilometers from the District Headquarters under Peshrar Police Station limits of Lohardaga District of Jharkhand on December 12, reports Telegraph.The deceased has been identified as Etwa Parhiya (22), while the injured has been identified as Sooraj Parhiya (20).

The injured was admitted to Sadar Hospital in the said District, around 90kilometers from the State capital and closer to the Latehar District border. The Superintendent of Police (SP) Priyadarshi Alok said, “We came to know about the incident and recovered the body. Maoists had apparently used a pressure device and so when the duo walked on the IED it exploded. Four accompanying the victims are safe.” A Police Official, said primary investigation suggests, hand of Maoist ‘commander’ Ravindra Ganjhu carrying an award of INR 1.5 million on his head, behind the incident. “A squad of Ganjhu is active in the forest connecting Latehar, Gumla, Lohardaga, Garhwa, Palamau. It is because of his presence, earlier a bridge was blown up before elections in Gumla,” the Official said.

A pressure Improvised Explosive Device (IED), planted by the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), killed a teenage girl and injured two other women in an area under Peshrar Police Station limits in Lohardaga District of Jharkhand on December 24, reports Pioneer. The deceased has been identified as Jamuna Oraon (16), who inadvertently stepped on the IED and died on the spot in the explosion. Two injured women have been identified as – Sangeeta Oraon and Rouni Kumari. As per the Police, the Maoists have been planting pressure IEDs to target security forces in rural areas. Their move, however, is causing civilian casualties as the IEDs are easily triggered by the body weight of villagers who go to forests to gather wood. The Superintendent of Police (SP) Priyadarshi Alok said, “Maoists target Security Forces and not civilians. But their recent moves have caused many civilian casualties. They may have planted the IED during the polls to target Security Forces (SFs), and the girl became a victim”.
