Eight Maoists, including a boy, have been caught in connection with last month's Aranpur blast in Chhattisgarh's Dantewada district wherein 10 police personnel and a civilian lost their lives, police said today.
With this development, the total number of Maoists held in the case increased to 17, they said.
Of these eight Maoists, five were arrested on Wednesday (May 17), while three others, including the minor boy, were held on Friday during search operations by security personnel in Aranpur police station area and adjoining locality, a senior police official said.
Police gave information about it on Friday evening.
