Officials from the National Investigation Agency (NIA) came to Visakhapatnam on June 23 (Thursday) to investigate the case of a woman who had been missing since 2017.
Pallepati Pochamma, a resident of Ranga Reddy district in Telangana, had lodged a complaint stating that her daughter, Radha, a nursing student, was kidnapped three years ago by members of the Chaitanya Mahila Sangham (CMS), a frontal organisation of the CPI (Maoist), and inducted into the Maoist movement forcibly.
In her complaint, Ms. Pochamma said her daughter was taken away by the Maoist leaders and CMS activists under the pretext of providing treatment to someone in the Maoist fold.
