Cherla (Kothagudem): A major threat to the police forces engaged in combing operations in the forests on Telangana-Chhattisgarh borders has been averted with the police unearthing as many as 100 booby traps. A police team led by Cherla Inspector of Police (CI) B Ashok and Sub-Inspector of Police Raju Varma found the booby traps, iron spikes fixed to a wooden plank, planted in around 78 pits dug in the forests along the State border, on Thursday.

CI Ashok informed that they had taken up search operations following the directions of Superintendent of Police Sunil Dutt after a tip off about the movement of the Maoists in the forests. The booby traps were found at a distance of one kilometre in the north-west direction of Pusuguppa village under Cherla police station limits. All the traps which were planted along a forest track at the edge of a hillock in between Pusuguppa and Rampur village of Chhattisgarh were spotted and cleared.

It was learnt that the traps, meant to injure and kill the police, were planted by the Maoist militia and Dalam members belonging to Rampur, Bheemaram, Pusuguppa and other villages following the directions of naxal leaders Haribhushan, Damodar, Azad and Sharadha, the CI added. Given the size and sharpness of the booby traps, covered with leaves and soil, the police forces could have suffered grave injuries during their combing operations in the forests, the police said.
