Three Maoist rebels, including a woman cadre, who were involved in a number of attacks in Orissa's Gajapati and Kandhamal districts, today surrendered before the police.
"They decided to lay down arms repenting the path of violence ...They claimed they have been tortured by seniors," Superintendent of Police, Kandhamal, Praveen Kumar told reporters here.
The surrendered were identified as Kamla Mandal (22) of Gajapati district, Binayak Parida (30) and Bishnu Parida (21) from Bariguda village in Raikia police station in Kandhamal district, he said.
While Kamla of Bansadhara committee of CPI (Maoist) had been active in Maoist activities since 2003 and involved in over eight cases, the other two ultras were providing logistic support and engaged in information collection, Kumar said.
Information about Maoist activities in Orissa and neighbouring states like Andhra Pradesh and Chhattisgarh are likely to be obtained from them, the police said.
