New Delhi, April 6 (Inditop.com) Home Minister P. Chidambaram said Tuesday that the scores of Central Reserve Police Force (CPRF) personnel massacred in Chhattisgarh earlier in the day seemed to have walked into a Maoist trap.
“Something has gone very wrong,” a sombre Chidambaram told reporters outside his office here. “They seem to have walked into a trap set by the Naxalites (Maoists). Casualties are very high. I am deeply shocked.”
“But this shows the savage nature of the CPI-Maoist, the brutality and savagery they are capable of. Senior officers have gone to the area. I await a report from them,” he said, referring to the outlawed Communist Party of India-Maoist.
