In a decisive move against insurgency, Chhattisgarh police arrested six Naxalites in Sukma district on Thursday. These arrests include Kunjam Muka and Madvi Muya, notorious figures with bounties on their heads.
Muka, a Janatana Sarkar head, and Muya, a militia commander, were implicated in attacks on security forces during the 2023 assembly elections. Both are also involved in civilian killings, marking them as high-profile detainees.
The police operation also led to the capture of four lower-tier Naxalites, along with the seizure of explosive materials. Authorities thwarted a potential IED attack, attributing their success to increased patrols that prevented the militants from executing their plans.
