Malkangiri: Maoists killed a
man in Orissa's Malkangiri district suspecting him to be a
police informer, police said Sunday.
The victim, identified as Nityananda Nag (50), was
forcibly taken away from his house by a group of ultras late
last night and his body was found this morning near Kutuguda
in Kalimela area, about 50 km from here, they said.
Nag's head had been smashed with some blunt object,
they said adding that the body had been sent for post-mortem.
The ultras killed Nag as they apparently suspected
that he was operating as a police informer, they said.
A couple of banners and Maoist posters were found
near his body opposing any special operation by the security
forces against the left wing extremists.
Patrolling has been intensified and combing operation
launched in the area after the incident.
