Cadre of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) killed five policemen in Khunti district and decamped with their weapons on December 5-afternoon, reports Indian Express. The incident occurred around 2.15 pm near Rahe village under Sonahatu block, 30 km from Tamar in Khunti district, when the policemen were returning on foot after patrolling in the morning when the Maoists ambushed them. “They opened indiscriminate firing, leaving them no scope to retaliate,” said Director General of Police V. D. Ram who was supervising the combing operation in the area. However, The Telegraph reports that in a first of its kind attack, some 25 Maoists, all in plain clothes and hiding in shops, pounced on the policemen as they walked back to the Rahe police outpost. “At least five Maoists attacked each jawan. The jawans were dragged to different spots in the market, stabbed and shot. We are not sure whether the Maoists used the jawans’ Insas rifles or if they had brought their own guns,” Senior Superintendent of Police, M.S. Bhatia, said.
