At least six Naxalites were suspected to be injured in a clash with police in Hardiya Padariya jungles under Anandpur police outpost of Bihar's Banka district today, a senior police officer said.
The injured Naxalites managed to escape but bloodstains found at several places indicated that they were injured during the encounter, Superintendent of Police Rajiv Ranjan said.
Around a hundred rounds were fired from both sides during the encounter, the SP said, adding that police destroyed a bunker of the rebels.
The police seized half a dozen detonators, 100 cartridges, 12 mobile phone sets and Naxal literature from the site.
