Senior police officials involved in the anti-Maoist operations said they had information that even the central committee members of the CPI-Maoist would frequently visit Chennai. "Since a former chief minister was the target, the central committee leaders themselves must have planned and monitored the attack from Chennai. We suspect those who carried out the operation might have escaped to Chennai," a senior police officer said.
