The cadres of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) killed two civilians at Puraslagondhi village in Etapalli taluka (revenue sub-division) in Gadchiroli District of Maharashtra on December 1, reports India Today. The deceased have been identified as Maaso alias Masu Pungati (55), the chief of the said village and Rishi alias Rushi Meshram (52), a political worker of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP). Both have been working in Surjagad mines in the District which the Maoists disapproved of. As per the report, the two were killed by a group of around 30 to 40 Maoists who reached the village at night and called for a ‘Jan Darbar’ (kangaroo court of Maoists). Following the ‘Jan Darbar’, the Maoists sentenced the two to death for helping and supporting Government in running the mining operations at Surjagad mines. The two were then shot dead by the Maoists, following which they left the village warning and threatening the villagers.

The Judicial commission report into the June 28, 2012, killings at Sarkeguda in Bijapur District of Chhattisgarh says there is no evidence that the 17 persons killed were cadres of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), and it has detected “manipulation in probe” after the killings, reports The Times of India on December 2. A joint team of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and Chhattisgarh Police had gunned down 17 persons at Sarkeguda in the night of June 28. Security Forces (SFs) had claimed they had launched an operation on the basis of inputs about the presence of Maoists in Sarkeguda and killed 17 Maoists. However, locals insisted those killed were not Maoists but innocent villagers, who had assembled for a village meeting. Later, on July 11, 2012, a one-member judicial commission, headed by Justice V K Agrawal, a retired judge of Madhya Pradesh, High Court, was formed which submitted its report to the State Government in November 2019. The Justice Agrawal report doesn’t use the words ‘fake encounter’, but indicates that those killed were not rebels. The panel has pointed out that they killed from “close quarters”, and that one of the victims was gunned down in the morning — several hours after the “encounter” took place. There was no firing by the villagers, but the SFs might have “fired in panic”, the report says. The Justice Agrawal report has also noted that the injuries suffered by six SF personnel were due to crossfire — possibly by bullets fired by forces. Observing that there was “clear manipulation in the investigation”, the commission also doubted the villagers’ claim that they had assembled for a meeting to discuss a festival.

A huge cache of explosives was recovered from a Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) hideout in a joint operation by District Police and Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) from Lakhibad village under Gopikandar Police Station limits in Dumka District of Jharkhand on December 4, reports UNI. The Superintendent of Police (SP), Y.S. Ramesh, said, "On a tip-off in the said village, we have recovered 320 gelatin sticks and 200 detonators and we are investigating the Naxal [Left Wing Extremism, LWE] angle, whether the Naxals wanted to disturb the assembly elections. This is very sensitive as during 2014 and 2019 elections also, there were explosions. We are also not ruling out that with these explosives Maoists would have disturbed the electoral process in Jharkhand. We have tightened the check posts as we have got some more leads."

A pressure Improvised Explosive Device (IED), planted by the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), killed a teenage girl and injured two other women in an area under Peshrar Police Station limits in Lohardaga District of Jharkhand on December 24, reports Pioneer. The deceased has been identified as Jamuna Oraon (16), who inadvertently stepped on the IED and died on the spot in the explosion. Two injured women have been identified as – Sangeeta Oraon and Rouni Kumari. As per the Police, the Maoists have been planting pressure IEDs to target security forces in rural areas. Their move, however, is causing civilian casualties as the IEDs are easily triggered by the body weight of villagers who go to forests to gather wood. The Superintendent of Police (SP) Priyadarshi Alok said, “Maoists target Security Forces and not civilians. But their recent moves have caused many civilian casualties. They may have planted the IED during the polls to target Security Forces (SFs), and the girl became a victim”.
