Maoist in India
NEW DELHI – Maoist rebels killed 15 policemen and injured three others in attacks during the past two days in India's eastern state of Chhattisgarh, state police officials said Friday.An overnight landmine explosion triggered by left-wing guerrillas in a forested area in the state's Dantewada district, almost 400 kilometers south of the state's capital of Raipur, killed 10 officers and injured three others, according to Ram Niwas, state police official in-charge of Maoist operations.
The attack came just hours after heavily-armed guerillas, known here as Maoists, killed five security personnel in a pre-dawn ambush Thursday in the neighboring district of Narayanpur, also in Chhattisgarh state.
