Maoists abduct, kill panchayat official in Chhattisgarh
RAIPUR: Maoists abducted a village panchayat secretary and beat him to death in the forests of Karramal in Raigarh district of Chhattisgarh.
Police and the villagers found the body of Karramal village panchayat secretary Lakpati Dansena in the forests on Sunday after he was abducted by a group of armed Maoists late on Saturday night.
Maoist cadres, including women, first reached the house of village panchayat secretary's brother Gajpati Dansena and inquired about Lakpati's house. They asked Gajpati to follow them to the house from where Lakpati was dragged out and taken to the Karramal forests.
The rebels left Gajpati after beating him. They tied Lakpati's hands, beating him to death with lathis and later left the body in the forests, police said.
The rebels dropped pamphlets warning the villagers against giving any information to the police and demanding increase in wages of labourers engaged in plucking of tendu (beedi) leaves. The pamphlets described that the action against village panchayat secretary was taken by Bargarh Zonal Committee of CPI (Maoist).
This is perhaps the first Naxalite related murder in Raigarh district, which shares a border with Odisha where the Bargarh Zonal Committee of the Communist Party of India (Maoist) is active.
