New Delhi/Raipur: A
law must be enacted to prevent kidnappings such as that of the Chhattisgarh collector Alex Paul Menon by Maoists, Congress
spokesperson Rashid Alvi said Sunday.
"The central government must make a law to prevent such type of
incidents. This fear of abduction is there in every
Maoist-affected area and this should be strongly condemned. It is
not good.
"Whether a collector is kidnapped or a MLA, all these
recent kidnappings of Maoist are adverse incidents," Alvi told a
TV channel.
The Sukma district police, meanwhile, searched several parts of
the forest area on the Andhra Pradesh and Chhattisgarh border in
the early hours of Sunday looking for the kidnapped 32-year-old
IAS officer.
"But he is so far completely traceless," an official at the police
headquarters said.
