Kandhamal:The red rebels of banned CPI-Maoist continue to pose serious challenge to Odisha man with gunning down a man suspecting him to be a police informer on Thursday night.

The incident was reported from K.nuagaon, and the  area known as  Maoist-prone  zone in  Kandhamal district of Odisha.

The deceased has been identified as Ranjan Kumar Digal, a resident of Budrumaha village under K.nuagaon police limits.

According to reports, a group of militants barged into house of the youth at around 10.00 pm yesterday suspecting him to be a police informer and shot him dead. They threw the body near a school at village.
