Three others managed to escape. Naveen Prasanth had received arms training at a Maoist camp at Dharmapuri and was an expert in handling various sophisticated arms.

The name of the injured Maoist was not known immediately. Police had launched a massive hunt in Kodaikanal and Periyakulam hill areas following reports that Maoists were roaming around the area with the intention of setting up a base for arms training, the sources said.
