The Security Forces (SFs) successfully foiled a major threat to public safety as they recovered and defused two Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), one weighing five kilograms and the other eight kilograms, planted by cadres of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) in the jungles (forests) near Maradiri village under Goilkera Police Station limits in the West Singhbhum District of Jharkhand on June 5, reports The Avenue Mail. Acting on intelligence inputs, the SFs launched a comprehensive operation in the region and during their search and combing operations, they unearthed the two IEDs, which were concealed in a remote area, intending to cause harm to innocent civilians and SFs to disrupt peace in the region. Specialized Bomb Disposal Squads (BDS) neutralized the IEDs in a controlled and safe manner.
