CoBRA Jawan

Maoists in Chhattisgarh on April 8 released the CRPF CoBRA jawan, Rakeshwar Singh Manhas, who was kidnapped by the Naxals on April 3. The jawan was missing since the deadly clash between the Naxals and security personnel at the Sukma-Bijapur border in the state. Family members of the soldier expressed happiness and thanked the government for ensuring his safe release. Earlier, relatives of Rakeshwar had staged a protest as well.
