Former Jadavpur University student and a suspected Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) leader identified as Joyeeta Das was arrested from Jagulia village under Barasat I Block - 1 in Barasat Sadar subdivision in North 24 Parganas District of West Bengal on March 29, by the Special Task Force (STF), on charges of waging a war against the State, reports The Telegraph. Das, who had been associated with the Nandigram movement as a member of the Matangini Mahila Samity (MMS), a non-profit organisation, was arrested from Jagulia in Barasat after her name allegedly cropped up during interrogation of two persons involved in suspected Maoist activities at Nawada in Murshidabad District on March 24, the Police said. Das had been arrested earlier in 2013 and charged under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA). The Police said the case for which Das had been arrested dates back to an incident when documents and leaflets related to the banned outfit, were found in the Maidan area in Calcutta. Two persons named Hasibur Sheikh of Nawada and Pratik Bhowmik of Dhantala in Nadia were arrested recently in connection with that case, interrogating whom, Das’s name had emerged, an officer said. The court has remanded her in custody till April 8, and interrogation is going on to get more information.
