Contrary to expectations of his release from Chennai jail in India, senior Maoist leader Chandra Prakash Gajurel aka Comrade Gaurav has been sent to Kolkata to face fresh charges there.
The Chennai Metropolitan Court has ordered, on Monday, to hand over Gajurel to the police of West Bengal state.
The police of West Bengal have said that Gajurel faces charge of treason against the state and have demanded that Chennai court send him there.
After serving three year jail sentence in Chennai central jail, Gajurel was released on September 18. However, West Bengal police immediately arrested him and pressed fresh charges.
Gajurel languished in Chennai jail for three years after he was arrested on August 20, 2003 from Chennai airport as he was about to board an airplane to London. He faced charges of using fake passport.
