“We have received the body of Baria Soren, who was a resident of Sapdhara,” Jhargram’s Superintendent of Police Praveen Tripathi told IANS over phone.
“He was a CPI-M supporter. We believe it is the handiwork of the Maoists,” Tripathi said.

Maoists are mainly active in three western districts of the state - West Midnapore, Purulia and Bankura.
