This arrest follows the earlier apprehension of two other PLFI members in a case registered last October. The NIA alleges the group was attempting to revive its operations after the arrest of its leader, Dinesh Gope.

As part of the revival activities, PLFI members and cadres were involved in generating funds through extortion from various coal traders, transporters, railway contractors, and businessmen in Jharkhand, Bihar, Chhattisgarh and Odisha, as per the NIA investigations.
The NIA continues its investigation into the PLFI’s revival efforts.
