At least 12 Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres were killed during a gun battle between the Chhattisgarh Police and the extremists in the Bijapur District on September 24, reports Express Buzz. Though the Police could not locate the dead bodies of the slain extremists as they were carried away by their fellow cadres, they arrested two Maoists. None was injured from the Police side, the report added.Chhattisgarh Police sources told Express Buzz over the phone that 600 Police personnel, including the State Task Force and Special Police Officers from Dantewada, set off for the Maoist stronghold of Isulnar village in Bijapur two days ago on specific information about the presence of at least 200 Maoists (a company of the Maoists besides local militia). While combing, a Police party came under heavy fire from the Maoists. The other Police teams soon joined the shootout and a heavy firing ensued. "We fired around 2,000 rounds in reply to an almost equal number of rounds fired by the enemy," Police sources said, adding, that both sides maintained a distance of about 150 metres. They said they could see the Maoists carrying away the bodies of the dead. "We saw nine bodies being carried away but the number of deaths on their side could be more," sources added. The Police suspect that among those killed could be a section commander. The report added that the Maoists used two-inch mortars which are normally available with the Police or paramilitary forces.In addition, two Maoists, identified as Kursam Budru (35) and Kursum Mura (30), were arrested from the encounter site. Even as the gun battle was on, the extremists planted improvised explosive devices along the route which the Police later defused and recovered. Though the encounter came to an end by the evening of September 25, the Police treaded cautiously anticipating landmine attacks. "We found 50 kg explosives near Isulnar village," sources said, describing the two arrested extremist as hardcore who did not reveal anything before the Police.
