Two persons were arrested along with nine Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICNs) of INR 500 denomination in Indore in the night of January 25, reports DNA. The arrestees include, Sheikh Amzad and Mohd Milon, employees of a construction contractor and residents of Nadia District of West Bengal. The National Investigating Agency (NIA) probing FICN printed in Pakistan suspects that the two youths might be conduits of the international racket involved in it. “We suspect that the duo arrested in Indore might have international links. Both Malda and Nadia have borders with Bangladesh from where the FICN is smuggled,” a senior NIA officer said. The suspicion grew after NIA had arrested kingpins of the smuggling operation, Morgen Hussain and Rakib Sheikh, both residents of Malda District of West Bengal, on January 6. They had been coordinating circulation of FICN in India through a network of bank accounts and ATMs for transferring back the genuine currency to the suppliers based in Malda. Subsequently, 13 persons have been arrested by NIA in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, West Bengal, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh.

The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) on April 12 decided to set the National Investigation Agency (NIA) after Naxals [Left-Wing Extremists] to probe and dismantle their supply of weapons and communication devices, reports Hindustan Times. The MHA ordered the NIA to take over its first anti-Naxal case when it decided to transfer investigations into the arrest of Sadanala Ramakrishna alias RK, the Warangal regional engineering college alumnus who headed the technical committee of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist). Ramakrishna, who had gone underground 34 years ago - was arrested in Kolkata by a joint team of Kolkata Police and Grey Hounds from Andhra Pradesh on February 29.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA), which is investigating the activities of the arrested Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) leader Sadanala Ramakrishna alias RK, the chief of the outfit's Technical Research and Arms Management Unit, believes that the Maoists may have already managed to send over 6,000 rocket launchers to Chhattisgarh, reports The Times of India. The agency found evidence that in his seven-month clandestine stay in Kolkata, RK, the trained engineer from Warangal spent close to INR 20 million manufacturing ultra-low cost rocket launchers whose designs and assembling techniques were formulated by him.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) could soon file its maiden case against Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) chief Muppalla Lakshman Rao alias Ganpathy, reports The Times of India. The agency is likely to book Ganpathy in the case against Central Technical Committee member Sadanala Ramkrishna, who was arrested from Kolkata on February 29. NIA claims it has found evidence of Ganpathy's involvement in the arms manufacturing conspiracy through independent witnesses, who were once part of the Maoist Central Committee (CC). In most Naxal violence cases, where Ganpathy has been named as an accused, it has been because of him being the chief of the banned organization.

In what could prove to be clinching 'evidence' of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) general secretary Mupalla Lakshmana Rao alias Ganapathy’s complicity in Left-wing extremist (LWE) violence across the country, the arms manufacturing units, which were busted by the West Bengal Police and the National Investigation Agency (NIA) in March, were set up at his direct supervision, reports The Times of India. Investigations revealed that the units assembled thousands of low-cost rocket launchers, estimated to cost INR 50 million, in the past three years. The units acted as a conduit to procure components for manufacturing launchers from various companies in Kolkata and Mumbai on the pretext of making boilers or other machines. The chain of command included three top Maoist leaders, apart from the party's technical committee chief Sadanala Ramakrishna, who is in custody. The NIA, which has completed investigations into its first Maoist violence case, is likely to file the charge sheet in the third week of August.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) filed a charge sheet against five Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) leaders in a special NIA court in Kolkata on August 23, accusing them of manufacturing local weapons illegally to "intensify the war against the country", reports PTI. The five Maoists, including 'central technical committee' member Sadula Ramakrishna alias Sadanala Ramakrishna, Dipak Kumar Pargania, Sukumar Mondal, Sambhu Charan and Bapi Mudi were arrested in a joint operation by the elite anti-Naxal [Left Wing Extremism (LWE)] force Greyhounds of Andhra Pradesh and the Special Task force (STF) of Kolkata Police in March. The charge sheet also names five Maoist leaders, who are all on the run, as part of the conspiracy, adds The Times of India. CPI-Maoist general secretary Mupalla Lakshmana Rao alias Ganapathy, Central Committee members Nimbala Kesavan Rao alias Basavraj and Thipirri Tirupathy alias Devji, Central Technical Committee member B N Rao alias Prabhakar and Chhattisgarh ‘area commander’ Sahdeo's names figure in the charge sheet.

The Union Government is likely to challenge a Kolkata court’s declaration that nine suspected Naxalites (Left Wing Extremists) arrested by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) in an illegal arms manufacturing case as “political prisoners”, reports The Hindu. Sources in the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) said the Government had no option but to challenge the verdict as more arrested cadres of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) would now seek the same status. The status of “political prisoner” entitles an inmate several privileges over other prisoners as he will get to live in a separate cell and enjoy greater freedom inside jail, besides getting access to homemade food, newspapers, books and other reading material. There will be relaxation in meeting relatives and advocates. Significantly, in August, the Kolkata High Court had declared seven suspected Maoists, including CPI-Maoist-backed leader Chhatradhar Mahato, as “political prisoners.”

Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) had been procuring Chinese arms and communication equipment from People's Liberation Army (PLA), a Manipur-based banned outfit, via Myanmar and routing it to Kolkata through Guwahati between 2006 and 2011, a supplementary chargesheet filed by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) in the CPI-Maoist-PLA nexus case has revealed. The charge-sheet has been filed against Maoist leaders Pallab Borborah, Indranil Chanda and PLA's External Affairs Chief Asem Ibotombi Singh alias Angou, who were all arrested in 2012 from Assam, Kolkata and Odisha, respectively. According to the charge-sheet, all the communication equipment recovered from the Maoists have made-in-China marks, while arms recovered from PLA members too belonged to Chinese brands. The accused are alleged have played a significant role in training of Maoists by PLA in Jharkhand's Saranda forests apart from procurement of arms and communication equipment.
