Naxals kill ADM's driver on suspicion of being police informer

The driver of an Additional District Magistrate was allegedly killed by Naxals suspecting him of being a policeinformer in Chhattisgarh's Sukma district, police said today.
Srinivas Bisen (35), driver of Sukma ADM Mansingh Thakur, was attacked last night by armed cadres while he was heading to his native village Kerlapal, located around 16 kms from Sukma district headquarters, after his duty on his motorcycle, Sukma SP Indira Kalyan Elesela told PTI.
"When he reached near Girdalpara close to Kerlapal, the rebels opened fire on him following which he was also stabbed by some sharp-edged weapon leaving him dead on the spot," the SP said.

On being informed by locals about the incident, the security personnel reached the spot and rushed the victim to a local hospital where he was declared brought dead, he said.
Some pamphlets were found on the spot in which Maoists accused Bisen of acting as a police informer.
They alleged that Bisen passed on information to police based on which security forces had gunned down a Maoist couple last month in the forest of Gangaloor in Bijapur district, he said.
A case has been registered in this connection, he said, adding, a combing operation has been launched in the region to nab the culprits.
