“Terrorism against innocent civilians”

Special Correspondent

NEW DELHI: The Asian Centre for Human Rights on Saturday said the Communist Party of India (Maoist) must be held responsible for Friday’s killing of 18 persons, including the former Jharkhand Chief Minister Babulal Marandi’s son, at Chikhadia in Giridih district.

In a statement here, ACHR director Suhas Chakma said the CPI (Maoist) was an organisation with a recognised command structure and its leadership must be held responsible for the attack on a local tribal festival.

“The killing of innocent civilians violates all laws of war, constitutes crimes against humanity as defined under the international humanitarian laws and the Rome Statute of International Criminal Court.”
