The officer also informed that whenever such a plenary session is held and it is addressed by a senior leader such as RK, the Maoists spread a five-tier security wing spanning a radius of about 5 km.
“Since the firing is still on we are yet to ascertain how may tiers we have been able to penetrate. And whether we will be able to reach RK or would he have escaped under the cover of fire, can be confirmed only after the firing ends,” he said.
