Three days after one of the deadliest Naxal strikes ever in Chhattisgarh, those who were in the direct line of fire are slowly coming to terms with the chilling scale and nature of the attack. One of them is Sattar Ali, a close associate of Congress leader Mahendra Karma. Mr Ali was with Mr Karma on that fateful Saturday when around 250 Naxals struck a party convoy which was coming back after a rally in Sukma.
