The Gumla Police conducted a search operation in the Jamti forest under the leadership of Prabhat Kumar Sandwar, Commandant of CRPF 158 Battalion. During the search operation, the police and the security force personnel recovered the weapons wrapped in plastic and buried in the forest.
After recovering the weapon, the team launched a search operation for the Naxalites for hours, but the security forces did not get success as Naxalites had fled from the forest before the arrival of the team.
Sandwar said they launched the raid after getting credible information that some Naxals are active in the Jamti forest area. He said that the action against Naxalites will continue.
