The couple, identified as Thikka Sushmitha alias Chaithe and Madakam Dhula alias Dhula, turned themselves in before the Karimnagar police commissioner, Abhishek Mohanty. They were carrying a reward of Rs 4 lakh each on their heads.
“A Maoist couple surrendered today. They had been attracted to Maoist ideology. They have decided to come out of it because they found it difficult.
