In Gaya, a special team of police and STF achieved great success on Saturday and arrested Naxalite Munna Rawani alias Munna Chandravanshi alias Mukesh, who had a reward of Rs 1 lakh. Superintendent of Police (SSP) Ashish Bharti confirmed the arrest. He told that Munna Rawani was wanted in dozens of Naxalite incidents and was absconding for a long time.
Police said that Gaya police had gone to arrest Munna Ravani and were looking for him for a long time. Based on secret information, the police and STF team raided his house in Ghirsindi village of Mau police station area, where he had come to meet his family. Sensing the presence of the police, Munna tried to run away, but the police force chased him away and arrested him. Even before this, on April 22, 2024, an attempt was made to catch him in Simrauwa village of Dhangai police station area, but then he fired at the police and escaped under the cover of forests and mountains.
According to the information, Naxalite cases are registered against Munna Rawani in many police stations of Gaya district, like Konch, Sherghati, Tikari and Rajauli police station of Nawada district. He was absconding in these cases for a long time, on which the police had announced a reward of Rs 1 lakh. Along with his arrest, the police have also recovered Naxalite documents and many kiosks.
Naxalite activities will be curbed
SSP Ashish Bharti said that the arrest of this notorious Naxalite will curb Naxalite activities in the area. Anti-Naxal operations are being conducted by the police and paramilitary forces in the area, under which many actions ranging from area domination are being taken in the Naxal affected areas. This important arrest is likely to reduce Naxalite activities and help in restoring peace in the area.
