After being held hostage by Maoists for 12 days, abducted Sukma Collector Alex Paul Menon is expected to be freed by this evening when he will be handed over to the two mediators handpicked by the captors.
“B D Sharma and Professor G Hargopal, who represented the Maoists in the talks with the Chhattisgarh Government for the 32-year-old IAS officer’s release, left for Tadmetla this morning to receive Menon, who was kidnapped on April 21,” said N Baijendra Kumar, Principal Secretary to Chief Minister Raman Singh.
