Dandapani Mohanty, who acted as an interlocutor between the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) and the State Government during the high profile abductions of the then Malkangiri collector R Vineel Krishna in 2011 and Italians Paulo Bosusco and Claudio Colangelo in 2012, was arrested by Police from his residence at Shanti Nagar in Berhampur in Ganjam District on February 8 on charges of being involved in extremist activities, reports The Times of India. Mohanty was a logistics provider to Maoists, Director General of Police (DGP) Prakash Mishra told The Times of India hours after police took the convener of Jana Adhikar Manch (JAM) in custody. It may be mentioned that, in 2006, the state Government had outlawed Daman Pratirodh Manch headed by Mohanty on grounds that it was serving as a front organization of the CPI-Maoist. Justifying Mohanty's arrest, Deputy Inspector General (DIG) (southern range) Amitabh Thakur said, He was involved in at least 15 Maoist-related cases in Gajapati district. Of these, non-bailable warrants were pending against him in six cases.
