Madavi Hademe, South Bastar Divisional Committee Member of South Bastar in Chattisgarh of the outlawed CPI(Maoist), who is accused of involvement in nine major violent attacks resulting in the death of 117 security personnel, surrendered before Telangana police.
Forty-six-year-old Madavi alias Savitri, is wife of CPI-Maoist Central Committee member late Ravula Srinivas alias Ramanna who died of ill health nearly three years ago. Their son Ravula Srikanth too worked with the proscribed Maoists and surrendered before police last year.
Announcing Savitri’s surrender at a press conference, DGP M. Mahender Reddy said she was upset over her party leadership keeping her in dark about ill health of her husband who had played crucial role in strengthening Maoist movement in Chattisgarh. Post Ramanna’s death, she protested with the Maoist top leadership over not being alerted about her ailing husband.
