Jailor Chandresekhar Suman said a demand was to shift Anuradha Sharma, the ailing wife of one of them, from jail hospital to the Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) in Ranchi for better treatment.

Anuradha, lodged in the same jail, is the wife of Ravi Sharma, a member of the Bihar-Jharkhand Action Committee of the CPI(Maoist).

The jailor said the board of doctors recommended the authorities to shift her to the RIMS and the recommendation has already been forwarded to the Ranchi Deputy Commissioner.

The other demand of the trio was that Maoist Rahul Munda, who was at Chaibasa Jail before being shifted here, be sent back to the Chaibasa jail, the jailor said.
