Maoists abduct, kill commando’s dad, a police warden, in Maha

IndiaTimes Saturday, 25 November 2023
A C-60 crack commando's father, Lalsu Velda, 55, was kidnapped from home in Titola village and bludgeoned to death with boulders in Gadchiroli, Maharashtra. The incident occurred just 14km away from a fortified police outpost. This brutal act was carried out by Maoists as a warning to villagers to support their upcoming bandh against mining activity. Ten days ago, a former police informer was ambushed and killed in a similar fashion during Maharashtra chief minister Eknath Shinde’s visit to the remote Pipli Burg police station.
