A special National Investigation Agency (NIA) court in Patna, on December 1, convicted three Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres, identified as Udit Narayan Singh alias Tulsi alias Tufan, Akhilesh Singh alias Manoj Singh, and Arjun ji alias Mani Yadav, in a case related to the seizure of arms and ammunition in the Aurangabad area of Bihar more than a decade ago, reports latestly.com. The quantum of punishment against the trio will be pronounced by the court on December 4. A spokesperson for the NIA said the special court found them guilty of being in possession of prohibited and non-prohibited arms and ammunition, as well as chemicals for making Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) and bombs for their use in terror attacks by the banned CPI-Maoist in 2012. The Aurangabad Police had initially registered the case on March 26, 2012, a day after raids were conducted in the houses of the three based on information that some Maoist cadres had assembled in Aurangabad to execute terrorist activities.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) charged eight people on December 1 with supplying deadly explosives, drones, and other equipment to the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) for attacking Security Forces (SFs) in the Naxal [Left Wing Extremism, LWE]-infested areas of the country, reports the Deccan Herald. All eight accused are in custody following their arrest under sections 120(B), 143, 147, 148 R/w 149 IPC, section 8 (1) of the TSPS Act, section 5 of the ES Act, and sections 10, 13, 18, and 20 of the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) of 1967. While three of them, working as couriers for the CPI-Maoist outfit, were arrested while on their way to supply explosives, drones, and a lathe machine, the others were arrested subsequently. The NIA investigations have revealed that the explosive material recovered from the possession of the three arrested originally, namely Punem Nageswar Rao, Devanuri Mallikarjun Rao, and Vollepogula Umashankar, was supplied to them by accused Jannu Koti, Arepalli Srikanth, Tallapalli Arogyam, and Bontha Mahender. The latter four had procured the stuff from Sonaboina Kumaraswamy, who held a license for dealing in explosives. The cache that the three accused were carrying at the time of their arrest was intended for use in the manufacturing of country-made arms to be deployed against the SFs in the country’s Naxal-affected areas, as per the NIA investigations. The case was initially registered at Cherla Police Station in Bhadradri Kothagudem District of Telangana on June 5 and taken over by the NIA on August 3, the spokesperson said.

A senior Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) couple was arrested by a special Police team of the Ramagundam Police Commissionerate from Indaram village in Jaipur Mandal (administrative sub division) in Mancherial District of Telangana on December 2, reports The Hindu. Police identified the Maoist couple as Donga Gangadhar Rao alias Narsanna alias Bakkanna alias Vengo Dada (80), a ‘central committee member, CMC’ in the CPI-Maoist technical department, and his wife Bhavani alias Sujata alias Shayamala alias Laxmi (60), a ‘divisional committee member, DCM’ of the outfit’s Dandakaranya Special Zonal Committee (DKSZC). Police said that Rao had studied polytechnic in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, in 1969 and moved to Hyderabad for a livelihood. He had worked at a private company in the city during which he got attracted to Naxal [Left Wing extremism, LWE] ideology and subsequently joined the then Peoples’ War Group (PWG) outfit in 1980. He had gone underground in 2000. The CPI-Maoist ‘central committee (CC)’ entrusted him with the responsibility of the technical department involved in the task of manufacturing weapons and explosives, the Police added. The couple had been staying in Indaram under a false identity for the last 10 months. They allegedly purchased land and constructed a small house in the village using fake Aadhaar and PAN cards. The couple had been tasked with strengthening the Maoist urban network, motivating youth to join the outfit, and carrying out disruptive activities at the behest of some senior Maoist leaders. A case has been registered under Section 120 (B) r/w 34 Indian Penal Code (IPC) and Sections 10, 13, 18, and 18 (b) of the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) 1967.

The cadres of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) killed one of their former arms suppliers, identified as Chamra Madavi, and strangled him to death in Gadchiroli District of Maharashtra on December 3, reports The Times of India. Maoists branded Madavi as a ‘covert police agent’ who actively helped the Security Forces (SFs) between 2013 and 2019. A two-page note handwritten in Hindi and left behind by the Maoists’ Gadchiroli division committee accused Madavi of becoming an ‘enemy’ of his sister, who is actively involved with the rebels. Madavi was a sympathiser of the banned outfit and was arrested in Balaghat, in neighbouring Madhya Pradesh, last year for trying to supply ammunition to Maoists, Superintendent of Police (SP) Neelotpal said, adding that Madavi’s younger sister and brother-in-law hold key positions in the rebel outfit in the Dandakaranya region.

The Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) reportedly hoisted banners and posters along the Sonua-Lonjo main road and Banskata under the Sonua Police Station area in West Singhbhum District of Jharkhand on December 3, reports The Avenue Mail. The banners and posters, strategically placed at various locations, carry messages related to the 23rd anniversary of the ‘People’s Liberation Guerrilla Army (PLGA)’, slated for celebration from December 2 to 8. The Maoists have explicitly stated their agenda, emphasizing recruitment drives, support base expansion, and the fortification of the PLGA and Revolutionary People’s Committee. One of the banners issued a direct warning, stating that as long as the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) Forward Operating Base (FOB) camp remains in the Kolhan forest area, the Maoists will continue to pose a threat. The call to intensify the movement against public resistance and the alleged unjust war imposed on the tribal people of Kolhan by paramilitary and police forces are also highlighted.
