    • Chief minister Naveen Patnaik will be visiting Kandhamal district on Thursday at a time when the police seems to have found linkage between the arms recovered from the Nandagiri rehabilitation centre in Orissa’s Kandhamal district and the arms looted from the Nayagarh police armoury by the Maoists last year.

      The police on Monday had raided the centre following the death of an inmate during illegal manufacturing of crude bombs there. Interrogation of two injured persons by the police led to recovery of arms which were kept buried inside the camp, police sources said. The firearms include one SLR and three AK-47 rifles. The arms were looted from the Nayagarh police armoury during the ghastly Maoists’ raid on it in February 2008. At least a dozen of police personnel were killed in the incident.
