The Orissa State committee of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) on October 4 claimed responsibility for the killing of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) leader Swami Lakshmanananda Saraswati in the Kandhamal district on August 23, reports The Hindu. Speaking to a team of journalists from Bhubaneswar in a forest in Kandhamal, the spokesperson of the outfit's Orissa unit, Sabyasachi Panda alias Sunil, said it became necessary to eliminate the Swami as he was forcing tribals and Dalit Christians in Kandhamal to convert to Hinduism. "After the December 2007 communal violence in Kandhamal, we threatened to kill him if he and his supporters did not refrain from harassing tribals and Dalit Christians to change their religion", Panda said. Panda claimed that the members of the People's Liberation Guerilla Army (PLGA) who took part in killing them Swami had left two letters at the spot at Jalaspata ashram, claiming responsibility for the killing. "The government, however, suppressed the letters to help rioters continue with their attacks on the minority community," Panda added.

Eight persons, including seven tribal youths, were abducted by Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres on October 8 from four forest-villages (Dongala Jaggaram, Narsingapeta, Alliguidem and Bandigumpu) under Chintur police station of Khammam district, all located close to the inter-State border with Chhattisgarh, reports The Hindu. A large tribal group comprising mainly the kin of the abducted persons embarked upon a massive search in the Bastar forests in the neighbouring Bijapur district in Chhattisgarh.
