Naxals kill inspector, gunman in court premises

A police inspector and his gunman were shot dead by suspected Naxalites of the banned People's War Group (PWG) in the court premises at the Vizianagarm district headquarters in Andhra Pradesh on Friday, police said.

Four armed Naxals opened fire at M Gandhi, inspector of Salur police station and his gunman Chiranjeevi in the premises of a local court where they had gone to present evidence in connection with a case, police in Vizianagarm said.

Gandhi and his gunman were coming out from a court room when suddenly four ultras opened fire at them from point blank range, killing both on the spot, police said.

A manhunt has been launched to nab the Naxals responsible for the killings, they said.
