NIA conducts searches in Jharkhand, seizes incriminating material
The NIA seized incriminating materials, including mobile phones, documents, and letters, during searches at four locations.
WEST SINGHBHUM: The National Investigation Agency (NIA) conducted extensive searches on Thursday at the premises of several suspects and overground workers (OGWs) of the banned CPI (Maoist) outfit in Jharkhand’s West Singhbhum district.
During the searches, which took place at four locations, the NIA seized several incriminating materials, including mobile phones, documents, and letters.
This action was part of a case linked to the arrest of three OGWs who had been working as couriers for the CPI (Maoist). The trio was apprehended in July 2022 from Bera Kenduda School in West Singhbhum district. An incriminating letter found in their possession led the NIA to crack down on other OGWs and suspects in the district.
The NIA took over the investigation in August last year, and the probe is ongoing.
