Top Naxalite Among Four Killed in AP |
2005-03-28 |
Four naxalites, including a top leader of Praja Pratighatana group, were killed in an encounter with the police in Khammam district in Andhra Pradesh yesterday morning. Khammam Superintendent of Police Bhavna Saxena said the encounter took place around 10 a.m. near a hillock in Garla Bayyaram mandal on the Khammam-Warangal district border. Praja Pratighatana is one of the splinter groups of naxalites in the state. It is active mainly in north Telangana districts, particularly Warangal, Karimnagar and Khammam. Meanwhile, the Hyderabad City Police has mounted a campaign to exorcise the citizens of a ghost scare which has almost paralyzed night life in the Old City and other parts of this sprawling metropolis. |
