A top Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist)’s bodyguard surrendered before the Police in Seraikela Kharsawan District of Jharkhand on December 26, reports The Print. Prakash Gope (22), bodyguard of CPI-Maoist ‘central committee (CC)’ member Ramesh Majhi alias Anal Da, surrendered due to exploitation by leaders of the banned outfit, Superintendent of Police (SP), Anand Prakash said. Gope, who hails from Chota Segoi village in Kuchai Police Station area in the district, was wanted in several cases. Since he joined the outfit in 2019, he was involved in all incidents executed by Majhi, the Police officer said. A migrant labourer who had earlier worked in Bengaluru and Odisha, Gope had to join the outfit when he accompanied some villagers to deliver food to the Maoists in November 2019, and impressed by his firing skills, he was given a Self-Loading Rifle (SLR) and made the bodyguard of Majhi in 2020. However, he became disillusioned when Maoists ignored his repeated pleas for financial assistance for his sister’s marriage, and disallowed him from visiting his family, the officer said. “Gope came to know about Jharkhand government’s rehabilitation policy ‘Nayee Disha’, and contacted senior police officers to return to the mainstream,” he added. Based on the inputs provided by him, the Police and Paramilitary Forces have started frisking commuters in the bordering areas. At some places common people are also being interrogated by the Security Forces (SFs) on suspicion, and SFs have been deployed in strategic locations. SFs plan to raid all Maoist hideouts along the Bengal-Jharkhand border. A number of Maoist squads have also become active in Banspahari and Simulpal in West Midnapore District of West Bengal. Joint forces are expected to raid both places when operations begin, adds The Avenue Mail.
