Two tribals shot dead by Maoists in Chhattisgarh
Two people appointed as special police officers (SPOs) to assist security forces were gunned down by Maoists in Chhattisgarh, police said Thursday.
The killings took place late Wednesday in the forests of Bijapur, about 450 km south from here, when a dozen armed Maoists attacked the two tribals -- Chhapri Surendra,23, and Mukesh Poriami, 25.
After a brief interrogation, the militants took the SPOs to an isolated place and shot them dead, said Avinash Mohanty, superintendent of police (Bijapur).
SPOs are locals working as special officers for the police. They are not recruited as police officers but are assigned special tasks and keep vigil as they are better acquainted with the place.
