In its ongoing drive to tighten grip over the urban network of Maoists, the Chhattisgarh police has arrested three more alleged Naxal conduits and seized cash and ammunitions from them in Kanker district of north Bastar region.
The trio, identified as Dashrath Mandavi, Rajkumar Mandavi and Laxman Mandavi, all residents of Kanker were arrested on Saturday from their native place, Raipur Superintendent of Police OP Pal said.
Forty seven live cartridges, gelatins, detonators and Rs 11,500 cash were recovered from their possession, he said.
The conduits were allegedly involved in the movement of cash, supplying essential commodities to Naxals inside core forest, besides accompanying senior cadres during their travel in several parts of the region, Pal said.
