Naxals kill three policemen in Chh'garh

Naxalites are suspected to have killed four persons including three Special Police Officers (SPOs) in two separate incidents in Bijapur district of Chhattisgarh, police said on Thursday.



Bijapur Superintendent of Police (SP) in-charge JS Watti said that the suspected left-wing extremists had killed three persons including two SPOs in Aramangi village and one SPO in Belchar village Wednesday night.




According to Watti, Naxalites are increasingly targeting policemen and SPOs in Bijapur district "out of desperation".



"They are selectively killing police and SPOs to create a reign of terror in the district as we have eliminated 11 hardcore Naxalites in recent months," Watti said.
