In a significant development, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Thursday carried out widespread raids at the premises of various suspects and over ground workers of the outlawed CPI (Maoist) in Jharkhand's West Singhbhum district.

The raids resulted in the seizure of several incriminating materials, including mobile phones, documents, and letters, at four separate locations, according to a statement from the investigative body.

This latest action is part of a broader investigation tied to the apprehension of three alleged couriers for the CPI (Maoist) in July 2022. The trio was detained at Bera Kenduda School, and an incriminating letter found with them has led to further crackdowns on suspected Maoist-linked individuals in the district, the statement indicated. The NIA, which took over the case in August of last year, continues to pursue leads in this ongoing investigation.
