A hardcore

Maoist of Jharkhand Jan-mukti Parishad (JJMP) was arrested

from a private clinic in Medininagar in the Naxal-affected

Palamau district on Monday, police said.

The Maoist was undergoing treatment at the clinic, the

police said.

The Maoist, identified as Sanjay Yadav, had suffered

injuries after he fell down from a motorcycle at a place near

Chainpur police station recently, the Deputy Superintendent of

Police (DSP) of Palamau district, Surjeet Kumar, said.

He had initialy consulted a quack to get treated, the

DSP said.

As there were no signs of improvement, Yadav was left

with no other option but to consult a qualified doctor, the

DSP said.

Yadav was then admitted to the private clinic owned by

Dr Rahul Agarwal, where was undergoing treatment secretly, he

said.

The police carried out a raid at the clinic after

getting a tip-off and arrested Yadav, the DSP added.
