Journalist, two policemen killed in 'Maoist rebel attack' in India
2018-10-31
[DAWN] Suspected Maoist rebels ambushed a convoy on Tuesday in a restive Indian state, killing two coppers and a journalist from the national broadcaster covering the lead up to local elections next month.

The cameraman was escorting police on a patrol in a remote stretch of Chhattisgarh, in central India, when their vehicles were attacked by gunnies.

Police claimed the shooters were Maoists, also known as Naxals, who have been waging an insurgency against Indian rule in a forested belt of the country dubbed the "red corridor" for decades.

"A sub-inspector, a constable and a cameraman have been killed," Ratan Lal Dangi, a senior state police officer, told AFP.

Two others were maimed in the attack.

#3  A militant Maoist of Powys,
Too proud of his musical prowess,
Once led "Men of Harlech,"
But popular garlic
Rose up, and its part was the loudest.
