Abducted Bihar cop’s body found
September 3rd, 2010 - 10:44 am ICT by IANSPatna, Sep 3 (IANS) A day after Maoists claimed to have killed Sub-Inspector Abhay Kumar Yadav, the body of the abducted Bihar policeman was found near a forest in Lakhisarai district early Friday, media reports said.
According to local news channels, Yadav’s body was found near Simratali forest under Chanan police station in Lakhisarai.
Yadav was killed at around 4 p.m. Thursday, six hours after the expiry of the Maoists’ second deadline of 10 a.m. The killing took place following a decision by a ‘jan adalat’ or kangaroo court, a Maoist spokesman had said.
Yadav was one of the four Bihar policemen kidnapped by Maoists after a six-hour gunfight in Lakhisarai district Sunday. The gunbattle left seven policemen dead and 10 injured. Maoists claimed the gunfight was in retaliation for the killing of their leader Azad and a journalist in Andhra Pradesh.
