An official said on Tuesday, that on the suspicion of being police informers two villagers were allegedly kidnapped and hacked to death by Naxals in Dantewada district of Chhattisgarh. According to Dantewada Superintendent of Police (SP) Abhishek Pallava, the bodies of Hunga Karma and Bheema Muchaki, both aged around 35 years, who hailed from Bacheli town in the district, were found lying in a pool of blood near Bacheli railway station on Monday night. A group of armed rebels kidnapped the two men last week. SP Pallava said that after being alerted about their kidnapping, police teams started carrying out searches in the forest to trace them. A police team was rushed to the spot and the bodies were sent for postmortem after some locals spotted their bodies lying on the railway station road that passes through the forest around 11 pm on Monday. It appeared that they were attacked with sharp weapons and their throats were slit. A case has been registered in this connection and a search operation was launched in the area to trace the ultras, he added. The SP admitted that Karma was in touch with the police and had provided information related to cases of betting and gambling in the area in the past. He, however, denied that Karma was associated in any anti-naxal operations as an informant. A Maoist pamphlet was also recovered from the spot, in which the ultras accused the duo of acting as police informers, he said. The SP said that a preliminary probe revealed that the another deceased, Muchaki, was active as a Maoist earlier and had quit the outlawed outfit after he sustained injuries in an encounter in the past. Muchaki had availed treatment in Bacheli and since then he had been living in the same locality, where Karma was staying with his family, he said. Naxals might have thought that Muchaki was working under the instructions of the police, the SP said and denied the deceased's association with police.
