The incident took place at Khalashi area near Saralbangha river in the afternoon where the jawans of the ecological task force was on plantation duty.
A group of militants who outnumbered the security forces reached the spot and took away at least 35 INSAS rifles at gunpoint. Then they disappeared from the spot without any attack.
