Naxals abducted Ravindra Shankar Sunkri (24), son of the police patil of the village, on the suspicion that he was a police informer on May 16.
Police said that Ravindra had been indeed working as a special police officer between 20013 and September 2014.
Around 15 armed Naxals had taken him away from his house.

A Naxal pamphlet found near his body said Ravindra was killed because he was working as an SPO.
