The story of an encounter being told by the police is false. Our two Central Committee members, Comrades Katta Ramachandra Reddy and Kadari Satyanarayana Reddy, were arrested and later murdered!
Condemn these murders.
Our DKSZC pays tribute to our two CC members, Comrade Katta Ramachandra Reddy alias Raju Dada and Comrade Kadari Satyanarayana Reddy alias Kosa Dada, who sacrificed their lives in a fake encounter in Chhattisgarh’s Narayanpur district on September 22. Our SZC also pays tribute to our CC members, Modem Balakrishna alias Manoj Dada, Sahadev Soren, SZC member Comrade Patu, Comrade Vijay, DVC level comrades Lokesh, Sumitra, Vimala and other comrades who were martyred.
This encounter is a lie. The story being told by the police officers is fabricated. The truth is different. The CC had given these two comrades some different responsibilities; 10 months ago, they left to fulfill their new responsibilities. Comrades Raju Dada and Kosa Dada were arrested unarmed from Raipur city or from some other place between September 11 and 20. We have news that they were safe till the 10th. Our CC comrades received a letter from them. After their arrest, they must have been tortured for secret party information. Finally, they were brought to the Maad area on the 22nd and killed. A massive operation was launched for these killings from the 21st of this month is still going on.
Everyone should protest against the fake encounter of these comrades.
Our SZC expresses its deepest condolences and sorrow to the family members and friends of Comrade Raju Dada and Comrade Kosa Dada. The loss of these comrades, who are experienced in various fields, is certainly an irreparable loss to the revolutionary movement of India. The entire revolutionary camp is deeply worried by these continuous losses. We will fight till the end to achieve the goals for which these comrades sacrificed their lives.
How did the intelligence department manage to reach those two comrades? We will discuss the possibilities based on the information we have. Considering the various reports circulating in the media, we are forced to make this statement.
Firstly, Comrade Raju Dada and Kosa Dada have not been in the forests with the guerrilla forces for some time. Many people who came to know about this have surrendered to the police and informed the police authorities. The people who surrendered ranged from the SZC level to ordinary members. Secondly, the police department has also come to know who was responsible for the internal coordination with these people. Thirdly, when these people left, two or three people who were part of the security team also surrendered; they are currently actively working in the DRG. This surrendered DRG officer also told the authorities about the courier who went with Comrade Kosa Dada. Not only this, they came with police personnel and took the courier away from his house on August 13 (he did the job he was told for two to three months, after which he decided to stay at home). There are reports that he was tortured. He must have told them where they took him and who met him there. This may have revealed the name of the main courier. By intercepting that link, the intelligence officers must have reached the courier.
Reaching Raju Dada is easy. Fourth, another possibility is that the courier where these people are based may have been weakened; they may have gone to visit their family members and friends. In his last letter in September, Comrade Raju Dada wrote about some of the weaknesses of this courier. He also informed the local CC comrades about the possibility of problems arising. He advised his comrades to be vigilant, saying that danger was approaching from these surrenders and traitors. This was explained more clearly in the last letter, but I cannot say whether they had a chance to read it.
Continuous surrenders are becoming the main reason for every loss.
