A trooper of the elite C60 commando unit of Gadchiroli Police sustained bullet injury on his right leg during an encounter with the cadres of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) inside the forest near Dhodraj village in Bhamragarh Tehsil (revenue unit) in Gadchiroli District of Maharashtra early on April 3 morning, reports The Times of India. Superintendent of Police (SP), Ankit Goyal said the trooper was injured during a search operation inside the forest following an input of some Maoist presence in that locality. "It's too early to comment but the firing likely to have taken place suddenly. There was no Maoist ambush as such it seemed," he said.
