Two Naxalites Arrested in Lohardaga for Levy Collection, Sent to Jail

Lohardaga police apprehended two Naxalites involved in levy collection for the Jharkhand Presentation Committee (JPC), ensuring justice and safety in the district.

LOHARDAGA – Lohardaga police have arrested and jailed two Naxalites involved in levy collection for the Jharkhand Presentation Committee (JPC).

On July 9, pamphlets demanding a levy of ten lakhs were found at the main gate of the under-construction Eklavya Model School.

These pamphlets, supposedly from a figure named Abhimanyu Ji, led to the registration of an FIR, prompting the police to form a team and carry out a successful raid.

The raid resulted in the capture of two Naxalites, K Tiwari, a resident of Palamu district, and M Ansari, a resident of Lohardaga Kisko.

Several mobile phones and SIM cards, including those used in the levy collection, were seized during the raid.

Both detainees have a criminal history and FIRs have been registered against them in Lohardaga and Latehar districts under the Arms Act, 17 CLA Act, and for the operation of a Naxalite organization.

In a press conference, SDPO Vashishtha Narayan Singh stated that these arrests have put a stop to the obstruction of development works and the spreading fear among the working people.
