The police, which is aware of the incident, are reluctant to take any action against the Left extremists for the reasons best known to them.

What is surprising is that Mamata is reportedly busy convincing her husband, Ramkeshwar Tiwari, 45, to follow the diktat of the Naxalites and save the lives of her three sons Chintu (7) Alok (5) and Dheeraj (2), who were kidnapped by Maoists from her house in Parariya village, about 75km south of Dehri-on-Sone, late on Friday night. The Maoists tried to kidnap the fourth son––an infant––from the lap of the mother but failed in the approach. They also took away one of the neighbours, Raj Grih Mishra (55).
Ramkeshwar was not present when about 40 Maoists broke into his house on the foothill. He had gone to attend a marriage in Nauhatta.

She was so terrified that she appealed to the newsmen, who went to the village on the bank of Sone river on Sunday not to highlight anything against the Maoists, otherwise they will kill the three sons.
However, local villagers said that Ramkeshwar Tiwari had an old dispute over a plot of land with a co-villager Prem Chandra Mishra. The latter, instead of lodging any complaint with the local police, approached the Maoists to settle the score.

A few days back, Ramkeshwar Tiwari was served a notice by the Maoists and asked to be present at their court. However, he did not turn up at the jan adalat, which apparently antagonised them and they kidnapped his three children. They did so because they did not find Tiwari himself.

It needs to be recalled that Tiwari’s house was set ablaze by Maoists about two months back and they
almost run the parallel government in most of the inaccessible area of the state.
