Fourcadres of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) were killed in the morning of February 19 (today) following a nine-hour encounter with Security Forces (SFs) in the Taimara valley on NH-33 in Ranchi District and four firearms were seized, Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) Inspector General (IG) Rakesh Kumar Mishra confirmed, reports Times of India. The police have recovered four dead bodies and a process to identify them is on. All the four dead Maoists were in Maoist fatigue. Two CRPF troopers were injured in the initial hours of encounter.The operation began on specific inputs around 9 pm in the night of February 18. Ranchi Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Kuldeep Dwivedi, who led the operations, said intermittent firing continued throughout the night. "The Maoists, around 40 in number, were led by two top commanders. It was a strong team which engaged the cops in the operation all through the night," Dwivedi, who camped in the valley at night, stated. Dwivedi said police had information that a group of Maoists were passing through Ghaghrabera village in the valley and that an ambush was laid. "The Maoists opened fire on our team when cops asked them to lay down arms. The forces retaliated very strongly," the SSP said. The Maoists were going to a safe place when they were ambushed. One of the slain Maoists is a woman. "Two of them were carrying SLR. It suggests that they enjoyed a higher rank in the outfit," IG Mishra said. The Maoists were led by central committee member Vivekji and Mithileshji. "It is not known if the slain Maoists include any of the two or none," an unnamed Police officer said. Dileep Singh, assistant commandant CRPF, said other Maoists managed to escape after putting up a strong resistance. Two company CRPF, one SSB company and district police were part of the operation team.

Threepersons were killed and four others were injured when a band of Left-Wing Extremist (LWE) group, People’s Liberation Front of India (PLFI), opened random fire at a gathering in a village in Khunti District late on September 26, reports Indian Express. Following the incident, the Police and the Central Reserve Police Force (CPRF) have launched a massive manhunt in the Naxal-dominated region. The Police said that the PLFI targeted people on the suspicion that they were holding a ‘peace meeting’. Villagers in Naxal-hit Districts of Khunti, Ranchi and West Singhbhum (Chaibasa) have been holding peace meetings for over a year, in which they urge people to shun violence and return to the mainstream. Officials said that, although the meeting was not a peace meeting, the attack on hapless villagers was among the biggest incidents by the LWE groups against such initiatives. Police sources said that peace meetings are usually attended by people from more than a couple of villages. The dead have been identified as Deet Munda (45), Raukan Purti (62), and Sukhram Munda (50). The four injured persons - Vikram Purti, Paku Purti, Toto Purti and Sinu Munda. Superintendent of Police (SP) of Khunti, Anish Gupta said: “This is clearly to spread terror. The extremist groups are losing their hold on the region and this appears to be an act of panic on their part. The villagers, prima facie, were not holding any peace meeting. We have launched a manhunt and combing operations are on.” The incident came to light when villagers of Raitorang brought the dead and the injured to the Sadar Hospital in Khunti. PLFI is a splinter group of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist).
