Meanwhile, three Maoists, identified as Malini Hansda (26), Baburam Murmu (20) and Dhiren Soren (18), surrendered in Bankura District, to join the mainstream on January 31, reports Telegraph. Hansda was initially been inducted into the Ranibandh squad of the outfit. She said the “abject poverty in which I grew up caused in me a sense of disillusionment with the existing system” and “became attracted” to Maoist ideology during a trip to her village, Mahadeb Sinan, in late 2009. Police said Hansda had been given training in arms handling and had also attended “ideology classes”. “About a year ago, she was shifted to the Belpahari squad in West Midnapore,” a Police Officer said. Bankura Superintendent of Police Pranab Kumar said Hansda had been tasked with “holding lectures on Maoist ideology, basically brainwashing new recruits”. He added West Midnapore Police wanted Hansda in connection with arms, arson and sedition cases. Hansda said that a few months ago, she became “disillusioned with the hopes and promises that Maoist extremism had once offered”. “I read about the Government’s offer to rehabilitate Maoists who surrender. I discussed the matter with my mother and uncles before surrendering,” she said.
