The families of Paikmal fake encounter victims appealed before Orissa Human Rights Commission [OHRC] to intervene the matter seriously on 28th January, 2011.
The widows of deceased Madhav Singh Thakur and Ramesh Sahu tearfully approached to both commissioner and member of OHRC to investigate the matter through independent agency not through the SP of Baragarh because the SP is the main actor behind the killing.
Mr Madhav Singh Thakur and Mr Ramesh Sahu were the active member of
Gandhamardan Surakshya Yuva
Parishad [GSYP], the forum opposing mining of Gandhamardan hill.
The movement of Save Gandhamardan hills started in late 1980’s when the then State Govt. had given permission to the BALCO Company for mining of bauxite. The stir spread all over the country, the anti-mining movement started which results the govt. cancelled the MOU with Balco despite the company had already spent Rs 50 crores.
Recent past Vedanta Company has applied for lease of mining in that hill that opposed by the front. To satisfy the corporate needs, the present govt. is planning to spoil the movement to suppress the people’s voice against loot of the natural resources by killing of the defenders by alleging as Maoist.
Why a Fake Encounter so?
1- Madhav Singh Thakur led a protest march on 10 Nov, 2010 when chief minister Naveen Pattnaik visited to Paikmal if he was a Maoist, Could be sent to jail by the police when he arrested. [Madhav Singh marked round in photograph ]
2- On Dec 25, 2010 Madhav Singh Thakur visited the police station of both Paikmal and Jharbandh regarding to rescue of a minor girl who was kidnapped by a youth under Jharbandh P.S. he also be arrested on the very day .
3- Why the SP of Baragarh falsely told in media that the deceased were Maoist from Chhatisgarh without investigating their identity?
4- Why the bodies were taken for post mortem at Baragarh which is 130 Km distance from the encounter place whereas nearest Padmpur Sub divisional hospital is only 30Km?
5- Why the Police couldn’t able to recover any arms from them only showed food items?
6- Why no injuries spotted in police men when they claimed exchange of fire?
