Police neutralised one of the biggest training camps of the Maoists in the Saranda forest area after a major operation, which lasted for 72 hours, according to Statesman. A joint team of the Central Reserve Police Force, Jharkhand Armed Police and officers from eight police stations and special force personnel from Ranchi and neighbouring Chaibasa had raided a remote corner of the forest area late on December 31, 2005 close to the Kayangdera village of Sonuwa police station area of West Singhbhum district and the Rania police station borders of Ranchi district. However, during a brief exchange of gunfire, the Maoists managed to escape. Documents seized from the training camp suggested that Maoists were planning a major attack either on the Khunti sub-jail or on the Simdega jail on the lines of Jehanabad attack. Huge quantities of food, blankets, folding chairs, tables, tents, generator sets and other articles of daily use were seized from the camp. Superintendent of Police, Navin Kumar Singh, added that Maoists had erected watch towers on tree tops at regular intervals to keep a close watch on any movement close to the training camp, while at the same time had planned an attack on seven neighbouring police stations to loot arms and ammunition.
