Suspected Maoists in Kerala’s Wayanad call for boycott of Lok Sabha elections

A group of armed persons suspected to be Maoists were again sighted at Kambamala, near Thalappuzha, in Wayanad district of Kerala on April 24 morning.

Four armed persons, reportedly including Maoist leader C.P. Moideen, entered an estate lane around 6.10 a.m. and gathered estate workers at Kambamala junction. They interacted with the workers and reportedly asked them to “boycott” the Lok Sabha elections.

“There is no need for any rulers as the public themselves decide their destiny,” the suspected Maoists told the workers. They spent nearly 20 minutes in the area.
