"Eight persons from Ghuri village in Belatikri area in Lalgarh have been detained. We are interrogating them and if necessary, arrest some of them," West Midnapore Superintendent of Police Manoj Verma said.
Asked whether the detained persons had Maoist links, Verma said "So far, it seems some of them are active Maoists. Arms and some ammunitions have been seized from them."
