In the search operation that began on January 26 to rescue four abducted persons, one Central Police Reserve Force (CRPF) trooper died and 11 others suffered injuries when suspected Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres triggered over 12 Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) explosions on January 27 afternoon in Pirtand block of Giridih District, reports The Hindu. The abducted persons were released on January 27 evening. Three Panchayat-level workers and a Prime Minister Rural Development Fellow (PMRDF) were earlier taken hostage by Maoists on January 25 in Giridih District. Eleven companies, or nearly 700 paramilitary personnel, of CRPF and special assault groups of Jharkhand Jaguar (JJ) were deployed in the search operations. “Though we lost one of our men, we were able to secure the safe release of all four by putting the Maoists under immense pressure. Our forces surrounded them from all sides,” said Jharkhand Director General of Police Rajeev Kumar.

Twenty armed cadres of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) accompanied by 50 militia members triggered blasts at two coffee pulping units and a godown of the Andhra Pradesh Forest Development Corporation’s (APFDC) coffee pulping yard at Chapagedda in GK Veedhi mandal in Visakhapatnam District late on January 28, reports The Hindu. Coffee berries spread over the drying yards and a tractor were set on fire. The machinery and buildings were allegedly targeted using mines. APFDC estimated the loss of around INR 3 million. A letter addressed to the Regional Manager and Divisional Manager of APFDC and left behind by the east division committee of the CPI-Maoist said that the attack was in protest against the killing of party members in encounters, which it said were fake; against Operation Green Hunt and to demand the government to stop establishing new police stations and police outposts in Visakha Agency. They were meant to suppress the Girijans who were fighting for their rights over coffee plantations and against the proposed mining of bauxite. The party demanded APFDC to leave Visakha Agency. It also gave call for a bandh (shut down strike) in the east division on January 30 (today) with the above demands. The attack was reportedly led by Azad and Kavita, leaders of the Galikonda area committee of the Maoist party, and Ravi, said to be the official spokesman of the Andhra Orissa Border Special Zonal Committee (AOBSZC) of the party.
