Sambalpur Police reportedly arrested a hardcore Maoist, Roshan of Jharkhand from the Maoist hotbed Kisinda under Jujumura block of the district, on Sunday.
While the police are tightlipped, it is said that Roshan could have come to the area to boost the sagging morale of the cadres and the sympathisers. The possibility of his visiting for funds also cannot be ruled out.
Although Maoists from Chhattisgarh have stepped up activity in Bargarh and Nuapada districts, those from Jharkhand been maintaining a low profile after the death of Kishenji.
