5 cops injured as IED planted by Naxals explode in Chhattisgarh's Bijapur

NEW DELHI: At least five security personnel were injured on Sunday when a pressure IED planted by Naxalites exploded in Chhattisgarh
The incident occurred in the Tarrem police station area in Bijapur when a team of security personnel was out on a demining exercise from Chinngelur CRPF camp in the area, reported news agency PTI citing a police official.
During the demining exercise, carried out to trace IEDs and dispose them, security personnel spotted a wire connected to the pressure IED.
The cop said the explosion occurred when they were searching the bomb connected to the wire, leading to splinter injures to five personnel.
After being provided preliminary treatment, the injured jawans were shifted to Bijapur district hospital, the official said, adding that their condition was out of danger.
In July, two security personnel lost their lives and four were injured in an IED blast during an anti-Maoist operation in forests of Bijapur in insurgency-hit Bastar region.
