The Hindu reports that the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres ambushed a Police team at a court premises in the Lakhisarai District in the afternoon of June 23 and freed Misir Besra, a member of the Central Military Commission (CMC) and Politbureau of the banned CPI-Maoist, after shooting a Policeman dead and hurling bombs to scare away people.

Bhardwaj, the Inspector-General of Police (Operations), said on the phone. The ambush of the Police team took place when Besra was being taken out of the court.

Giving details of the incident, Netarhat Police station in-charge Sapan Kumar Mohata said, "All of them were unarmed and had to jump off the van to hid in the bushes before a patrolling party rescued them." The Police were inquiring why nobody carried weapons in the Maoist-stronghold, he said, adding, the Commander was returning to join duty after being on leave. Times of India quoted SP Kuldeep Dwiwedi as saying, "Reinforcements were sent as soon as word spread about the firing. But by the time our forces reached the spot, the Maoists had slipped away into the jungles. SAP jawan Chandu Pradah died in the firing while Jasbir Singh sustained injuries."

On the second day of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) bandh (general shut down), Chatra Additional Superintendent of Police Sunil Bhaskar escaped unhurt even as a series of attacks rocked several other Districts on November 30, reports Telegraph. Two among Bhaskar’s four bodyguards and a Police driver sustained injuries when the insurgents triggered a landmine blast at Kharwanari village under Hunterganj Police Station area of Chatra District at around 8.30am (IST). Bhaskar was on his way to Hunterganj from Pratappur. Sources said the Maoists took advantage of dense forest cover near the village, around 10 kilometres from Pratappur. Bhaskar survived the attack, as he was not reportedly in the vehicle that he usually used. “Bhaskar was sitting in an ordinary vehicle with his two bodyguards and a driver. He also asked the driver of the landmine-protected vehicle to follow him. He deputed two bodyguards in the landmine-protected vehicle. His strategy yielded result, as the extremists detonated the mines only after the ordinary vehicle crossed the danger zone,” a police officer said. “The anti-landmine vehicle driver, Mashi Kachhap, and my two bodyguards, Mukesh Mishra and Vikash Paswan, sustained injuries. They were airlifted and admitted to a private hospital in Ranchi,” Bhaskar said.
