Police neutralised one of the biggest training camps of the Maoists in the Saranda forest area after a major operation, which lasted for 72 hours, according to Statesman. A joint team of the Central Reserve Police Force, Jharkhand Armed Police and officers from eight police stations and special force personnel from Ranchi and neighbouring Chaibasa had raided a remote corner of the forest area late on December 31, 2005 close to the Kayangdera village of Sonuwa police station area of West Singhbhum district and the Rania police station borders of Ranchi district. However, during a brief exchange of gunfire, the Maoists managed to escape. Documents seized from the training camp suggested that Maoists were planning a major attack either on the Khunti sub-jail or on the Simdega jail on the lines of Jehanabad attack. Huge quantities of food, blankets, folding chairs, tables, tents, generator sets and other articles of daily use were seized from the camp. Superintendent of Police, Navin Kumar Singh, added that Maoists had erected watch towers on tree tops at regular intervals to keep a close watch on any movement close to the training camp, while at the same time had planned an attack on seven neighbouring police stations to loot arms and ammunition.

The Islamic charity is believed to have links with the outlawed Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM). “I don’t know why they raided our base camp. Perhaps it is a message for all other Islamic charities working in the area to pack up and leave,” Maulana Asmatullah Muawia, Al Rehmat Trust leader, told Daily Times from Muzaffarabad. “All I can say is that the raid has been conducted at the behest of the Americans and it was meant to discourage us as well as the other religious organisations working in the area,” added Maulana Asmat.

Six Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) cadres and eight sailors were feared killed, when a boat heading to northern Sri Lanka and carrying LTTE cadres exploded off the northwest coast on March 25 near a naval craft, a military spokesman said. The boat, believed to be carrying explosives, was approached by a Naval Fast Attack Craft to carry out an inspection when it exploded in the Kalpititya region, 200 km north of capital Colombo, informed Brigadier Pradsad Samarasinghe. People aboard are believed to have detonated the vessel to avoid detection, he said. The naval craft sank and 11 sailors were rescued. A search operation for the sailors was in progress, but they are presumed dead, the navy said. "The suicide-style explosion carried out by the crew of the trawler causing damage to a naval vessel and claiming the lives of Navy personnel is a violation of the cease-fire," the Government said in a statement. However, the LTTE denied any involvement in the incident. "We never engage in any offensive operations against the Sri Lankan army and navy," S. Puleedevan, head of the LTTE Peace Secretariat, told Reuters by satellite telephone from Kilinochchi. "There is no (Tiger) connection to this attack," he claimed.

The arrested minor girl who was recruited as a member of Bala Sangham during her early childhood became a dalam (squad) member two years ago. She worked in the Gurtedu dalam, Pedabayalu dalam and Bodagandi local organising committee. At the time of her arrest, she was reportedly carrying a .303 rifle and 60 rounds of ammunition.
