Midnapore (WB), July 25 (PTI) A junior police officer, who was taken into custody by Maoists from near a jungle in West Midnapore, was today released unharmed.
Assistant sub-inspector Deepak Pramanik, who was taken away by the Maoists from Pidrakhali jungle yesterday when he was ferrying drinking water in a lorry for camps of the state armed police and CRPF personnel at Bhimpur, five-km away, was well treated, the police said.
“They let me go when they found that I was unarmed and told me that they had no quarrel with lower-level police,” Pramanik said.
He said the Maoists allowed him to call up his home from his mobile phone at 11:15 last night and was promised that he would be released in the morning.
The Maoists escorted him the Dherua bus stand in the morning.
