Jharkhand police foil Maoist attempt to disrupt assembly polls | Police here have foiled a Maoist attempt to disrupt
the Assembly polls in Jharkhand as they have arrested three people with electronic material used in landmine plants. Acting on a tip off, the police intercepted
a vehicle here and found it laden with explosive devices in the Bundu area. "There
is a large plan by terrorists to plant landmines...They use camera flashes, wires,
switches, holders, batteries in landmines and then exploding them. There are also
a large number of woollen clothes and shoes. An accomplice of terrorists along
with his colleagues was taking the entire material to Bundu from Ranchi," said
Praveen Kumar, Superintendent of Police of Ranchi. Kumar said the arrests and
seizure is a setback to Maoists in their attempt to disrupt the five-phased polls
in the state beginning November 25. |
