Police handover bodies of three Maoists to their family members at Rampachodavaram in ASR district
The bodies of the three Maoists, who had been killed in an exchange of fire in the Maredumilli forest area, were handed over to their respective families late in the night on Thursday after conducting the post mortem examination at the Rampachodavaram Area Hospital in Alluri Sitharama Raju (ASR) district, said Deputy Superintendent of Police G. Sai Prasanth on Friday. The Maoists, who had been killed in the encounter on June 18, were identified as central committee member and secretary of the Andhra Odisha Border Special Zonal Committee Gajarla Ravi, alias Uday; Raavi Venkat Chaitanya, alias Aruna, of Pendurthi in Visakhapatnam district, and South Zonal Committee Member Anju of Konta block in Chhattisgarh, Mr. Sai Prasanth said. The exchange of fire had taken place along the Pamuleru stream, near Akooru village, in the Maredumilli forest cover of the district. 'The dead bodies have been handed over to the family members after completion of the legal procedure in the Rampachodavaram Area Hospital,' Mr. Sai Prasanth told The Hindu. Aruna was cremated in Pendurthi on Friday morning in the presence of a large number of people from the civil rights movement. Aruna had discontinued her studies to join the Maoist movement in the year 2000. She was initially motivated by her father Lakshman Rao's political ideology, as he was then an active member of the UCCRI-ML. Her younger brother, Gopal, alias Azad, had also been killed in an exchange of fire in 2016 in ASR district.
