A tragic event unfolded in Chatra on Sunday morning when a villager, Vishnu Sav, was kidnapped and murdered, reportedly by suspected Naxalites. The incident took place as Vishnu was leading his cattle to graze in the nearby forest. According to reports, four to five armed individuals abducted him, and he was tragically found dead shortly after in the forested area near the Tandwa-Balumath border, which falls under the jurisdiction of the Tandwa police station. This horrific act has caused widespread fear and anxiety among the local community.
The circumstances surrounding Vishnu’s death suggest a retaliatory motive, with suspicions that the victim may have been perceived as a police informant. Authorities are currently investigating the incident thoroughly to uncover all the details. Unfortunately, Vishnu was alone during his abduction and had no opportunity to call for assistance. Law enforcement is now focusing on maintaining peace and order in the regions affected by this violence.
The discovery of Vishnu’s body has heightened concerns regarding the presence and activities of Naxalites in the region. This kidnapping and subsequent murder have generated a tense atmosphere of fear within the villages. Police are actively present at the site, and further investigations are ongoing. This violent act underscores the continuing challenge of dealing with the Naxal issue and highlights the critical need for robust security measures in these vulnerable areas.
