Top Maoist arrested in Jharkhand

HYDERABAD: One of the senior-most Maoist leaders hailing from Andhra Pradesh, Mohd. Hussain, was arrested in Ranchi by Jharkhand police on Wednesday, the police here said. Hussain, who went by the name of Sudhakar in his party circles, was looking after the trade union activities in north India for the CPI Maoist party.

He was one of the founder members of the Singareni Karmika Samakhya (Sikasa), a trade union started by the erstwhile CPI-ML People’s War (PW). Hussain, a native of Mandamarri in Adilabad district, was a coal miner and went underground in early `80s to build up a militant worker’s movement which provided a fillip to the revolutionary movement in the State. Hussain’s wife, also an underground Maoist, was shot dead in an encounter at Sundilla village of Karimnagar district.
