A female Naxal, carrying a reward of Rs 5 lakh on her head, was nabbed from a forested patch near Chintlanar and Mundval village in Maoist-violence torn Sukma district, police said here on Thursday.
The arrested ultra was identified as Sodi Peeso alias Anita (25), a resident of Chintalnar village under Puspal police station limits, a local police officer said.
She was nabbed by a team of DRG and district police personnel during an anti-Naxal operation cum area-domination exercise carried out in the forests of Chintalnar, Mundwal, Tulsi and Kirmitti, police said.
In 2011 Peeso was inducted in the Naxal organization by the then Maoist CNM (Chetna Natya Mandali) president Mangali.
She was allegedly involved in killing of a resident of Chintalnar Dudhi Soni in 2017 apart from other serious criminal offences like, attacking police party, illegally possessing of arms among others, police claimed.
