Maoists reportedly put up a poster warning police informers and contractors in Rayagada district.
Through the poster supposedly issued by CPI (Maoists) at Chatikana village under the Bissam Cuttack police station, the ultras threatened police to stop arresting the tribals and dalits in name of Maoists in the Niyamgiri area.
The poster warned police informers and contractors not to help police any longer.
The Maoists also demanded immediate release of their leader Sikun Sikaka of Mayabali village from jail. They too exhorted the villagers to save the Niyamgiri hill.
