Four policemen were killed and seven injured on Monday when Maoists triggered a massive explosion in Chhattisgarh's Dantewada district, police said.The terror strike took place just hours after a trooper was killed when armed Maoists attacked a BSF camp in Chhattisgarh's Kanker district.In the latest attack, four Chhattisgarh Armed Forces (CAF) personnel were killed and seven others were wounded in the deafening blast that targeted their anti-landmine vehicle.The attack took place at Cholnar camp of the CAF in Dantewada district, some 400 km south of state capital Raipur.
"It's a massive blast. I guess it could be about 50 kg IED (Improvised Explosive Device) used to trigger a blast near a bridge. The anti-landmine vehicle was shaken up by the blast and 4 CAF jawans succumbed to injuries," Kamal Lochan Kashyap, superintendent of police, Dantewada, told reporters at the attack site.The policemen were returning back to the Cholnar camp after area domination drive.
