Two of them were identified as Sodhi Bhima (29) and Sodhi Nanda (20), who were part of "action teams" of Maoists while three girls were members of the rebels' `Jan militia', Pallava said. Remaining four minors were released as they were found to have no connection with Maoists, the SP said. Bhima and Nanda, carrying a reward of Rs 2 lakh each on their heads, were allegedly involved in the killing of a villager in Nilawaya forests on January 31, planting Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) to target SFs in Potali area during the recent Panchayat (village level local self-Government institution) polls, and attacks on Police and CRPF personnel, the official added.
