New Delhi [India], June 5 (ANI): The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Wednesday filed a chargesheet against a naxal cadre in a case relating to a conspiracy to damage and block a road in Chhattisgarh with the intent to kill police personnel and loot their arms.
The accused, Lakhma Ram alias Lakhma Korram, has been charged under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), Prevention of Damage to Public Property Act, 1984, Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act and Chhattisgarh Special Public Security Act, 2005, as per the chargesheet filed before the NIA Special Court in Chhattisgarh’s Jagdalpur.

NIA said that Lakhma, who was part of the conspiracy, had earlier worked as Adhyaksh of Bhatbeda Jantana Sarkar of Naxals. “Lakhma actively participated in the meetings held by banned outfit and carried out unlawful and criminal activities for it. He was also a leader of the Nadipara Protest in Orchha under the banner of Maad Bachao Manch, which was formed as a front for CPI (Maoist) to propagate their anti-government agenda,” it said.
