Maoist attack in Bihar's Gaya: This is the first time in years that a kangaroo court was held in the state, though sporadic attacks have been reported from some pockets
Maoists conducted a kangaroo court in Bihar's Gaya yesterday and hanged two men and two women and blew up their house. The house of Sarju Bhokta in Monbar village, Dumaria, was blown up with dynamite. His sons Satyendra Singh Bhokta and Mahendra Singh Bhokta and their wives were tied, blindfolded and hanged outside the house. The Maoists also pasted a note on the door of the house where they accused the family of murder and conspiracy.
The note mentioned that four Maoists -- Amresh Kumar, Sita Kumar, Shivpujan Kumar and Uday Kumar -- were poisoned and killed in the past and alleged the family's involvement. The note also warned of severe punishment to "traitors".
The police reached the spot on Sunday morning and are investigating the matter.
