Jharkhand Police after seizing the properties of hardcore Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres, will now start the process of scanning properties of the persons who helped the Maoists, getting out on bail as their guarantors but later they absconded and re-joined their cadres, reports The New Indian Express on January 9. Police all over the State will soon start a drive to identify such persons and seize their properties if found to be acquired by the money earned by ‘levy’ (extortion money) collected by Maoists.With an objective to choke the flow of funds to Naxal[Left Wing Extremism, LWE] organizations in Jharkhand, the State Police so far have seized properties of 27 Maoists worth several crore as it is believed that financial lifeline is important to running an organization.Inspector General of Police (IGP), Provisions, and Jharkhand Police Spokesperson Ashish Batra, stated, "Legal actions against the bailers of the absconding Maoists, who somehow secured bail from the Court and went back to their cadres, are being taken as per the provisions of Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC). Besides that, it will also be investigated whether they have any illegal property acquired out of the money collected by Maoist's money." Sources in the Police department revealed that the action is being taken in the light of intelligence input that some of the bailers who helped Maoists coming out of jail, have acquired huge assets without having any strong source of income.According to IGP, Batra, properties of as any as 27 hardcore Maoists worth INR 200million, having a market value of more than INRone billion, has been seized in Jharkhand while properties of several other Maoists were also under the scanner and they would be seized if the insurgents did not put their down arms. Notably, to check financial lifeline of Maoist leaders in Jharkhand, National Investigating Agency (NIA) and Enforcement Directorate (ED) in association with the State Police has already been investigating their financial resources of Maoist organizations so that they end up by themselves for want of finance.

Maoist activities in Odisha can be checked to a great extent if Police choke their funding. They (Maoists) will be practically finished”. According to a Police Official, Maoists in Odisha largely mop up money from ganja cultivation and extortion. Though thousands of acres of ganja plants are being destroyed every year and hundreds of cannabis smugglers arrested annually, the Police have so far failed to trace the main sources of funding to Maoists. Saying that the naxal [Left Wing Extremism, LWE] related violence is well under control in Odisha, the DG asked the State Police to refer sensitive Maoist-related and suspected terror cases to NIA for investigation. Further, the Director General of Police (DGP) of the State, B. K. Sharma said the NIA training workshop would help the State Police improve the quality of investigation into terror and naxal-related cases.
