Kolkata, Nov 17: Responding to Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s call, a hardcore Maoist couple against whom several cases of murder and violence including the deadly attack on a paramilitary camp in Silda were pending surrendered today before the police.
The wanted top Maoists—Jagari Baskey(26) and her husband Rajaram Soren(34)--were also presented before the Trinamool Congress supremo, who welcomed their decision and promised that the West Bengal government would take care of those who would surrender and eschew violence.
The couple, who were accompanied by their four-year-old son Bahadur, surrendered before the IG (IB) O P Gupta at the state secretariat.
Officials said this is for the first time any Naxal has surrendered at the Writers’ Building, housing the secretariat. The dreaded duo were involved in several incidents of ambush on security camps and villagers in Purulia, Bankura, and West Midnapore district.
