Unnimaya was captured with Chandru of the CPI (Maoist) Banasura Dalam during an encounter. The Thunderbolts claimed to have seized weapons from them. Two suspected Maoists, identified as Sundari and Latha, managed to escape. The Crime Branch did an evidence collection with Chandru at eight places last week.
