Sen is visiting Lalgarh towards the end of this week to make an assessment of the situation there. He said the police would not slap the Unlawful Activities (Prevention Act), 1967 against Chhatradhar Mahato, leader of the People’s Committee against Police Atrocities.
“He is not a Maoist. So, we will book him only under the IPC. But so far as known Maoists like Kishanji or Bikash are concerned, we can book them under the 1967 Act,” Sen said.
