Raipur, April 17 (Inditop.com) Maoist guerrillas Saturday opened fire on a team probing the Dantewada massacre in Chhattisgarh when it was in a forested stretch on way to the site where 76 security personnel were killed, police said.

“Maoists fired a few shots from distance on the probe team headed by E.N. Ram Mohan (former director general of the Border Security Force). The police guarding the single-member team returned fire. There is no casualty or injury,” Amresh Mishra, Dantewada district superintendent of police, told Inditop over phone.

He added that leftist ultras fired in the forest of Chintalnar, some 500 km from capital Raipur. The site is nearly 4 km away from the spot where 76 security personnel were killed by Maoists April 6.
