KANNUR, JAN 2/-/ Suspected Maoists attacked a
private quarry-cum-crusher
unit in Kannur district of
Kerala this morning, in the
third such strike by the Leftist ultras in the state in recent weeks.
No one was injured in
the attack at the unit located
at Nedumpoil, close to forests with some tribal settlements in the area, police
said.
A five-member group of
ultras, a couple of them carrying fire arms and in 'uniform', sneaked into the office
of the unit under cover of
darkness after securing the
key from a watchman on
duty, torched the premises
and vandalised the office.
The fresh attack comes
at a time when the government had stepped up security following intelligence
reports that Moists could
sneak into forest-fringe
tribal settlements in the hill
areas of Kerala, close to
Karnataka and Tamil Nadu
borders.
Before leaving the
premises, the ultras raised
slogans and pasted posters
carrying the name "CPI-Mao-
ists Western Ghats Regional
Committee."
Watchman Gopi said the
group sneaked in around
2.30 AM, pointed a gun at
him and took the keys and
torched and vandalised the
office. He said one of them
was a woman and wore
clothes that resembled the
uniform usually associated
with Leftist ultras.
Home Minister Ramesh
Chennithala said the Maoists were indulging in this
kind of vandalism to assert
their presence in certain
pockets of the state but they
lacked local support.
"They are trying to make
their presence felt through
vandalism. But they are isolated and do not enjoy any
support from the local people or tribal communities",
he told reporters at
Alappuzha.
A strong police team had
been rushed to the spot and
investigations had begun, he
added.
Police said the group behind the attack would soon
be identified by verifying
the CCTV footage obtained
from the spot.
