Kothagudem: Security forces have apprehended a Maoist Area Committee Member (ACM) who had a bounty of Rs 5 lakhs on his head, along with a courier, during a combing operation in the Mulakanapalli forests of Dummugudem mandal.
According to Superintendent of Police B Rohith Raju, the operation conducted jointly by district police, CRPF 151 Bn, and CoBRA 204 Bn personnel led to the apprehension of Puttam Munna, also known as Sannal, hailing from Pusnar village in Bijapur district, Chhattisgarh, and Jadi Peddabbai from Uppedu Veerapuram in Mulugu district.
