  Actually, it's difficult to verify the demands of the Maoists vis a vis the 
guards - all one has is what comes out in the name of their 'spokesperson' in 
the media, which may well be wrong or planted. But the guard is still a 
hostage, that's for certain. And I don't think the Maoists have refuted the 
demands being attributed to them - viz, lifting of Green Hunt in the zone and 
removal of a police picket. If indeed there is some effort at mediation that's 
very welcome.

    the information regarrting the guard is wrong. indeed maoists have
    asked shashi bhusahn pathak of pucl to act as a mediator in this
    matter. this is being flashed in ranchi and anyone can call and
    confirm.the rest of the info. is however cause for much concern.there
    is NO statement from maoists threatening to kill him were their
    demands not met.
