Four PLFI activists arrested

Four ultras of the
People's Liberation Front of India (PLFI) were arrested by the police in Khunti and West Singhbhum district today.
Three PLFI activists including a woman were arrested when they came to collect levy at Bhagat Singh Chowk in Khunti district by a police team headed by Additional Superintendent of Police Anurag Raj and Sub-Divisional Police Officer Ranveer Singh, said Superintendent of Police, Ashwini Kumar Sinha.
The arrested PLFI ultras were identified as woman activist Nirmala Kandulana, Jagai Pahan, who was the brother of PLFI 'sub-zonal commander' Naka Pahan, and Karamsingh Munda, he said adding that Rs 21,500 cash collected as levy was also seized from their possession.

Based on the inputs gathered during interrogation, a Khunti police team jointly with its West Singhbhum district counterpart launched a campaign in Tebo police station limits when the ultras opened fire at them.
The police retaliated in self-defence forcing the ultras to make a hasty retreat, he said adding that a PLFI activist Rugu Gudia was nabbed from the spot.
Sinha claimed some PLFI activists have suffered injuries but managed to escape.
Two double barrel gun and 46 live cartridges have also been seized from the spot, Sinha added.
