GAYA, JAN 28: In a quick retaliation against the Jehanabad massacre of 22 people by Ranvir Sena, armed CPI-ML (Liberation) activists gunned down former pramukh of Arwal block and his son at Khaira village under Mehandia police station last night, police said.
Police sources said armed extremists raided the house of the former pramukh and a member of CPI’s Jehanabad district committee Bageshwari Sharma and killed him and his son Lalan Sharma.
Sources said Sharma was suspected of being an activist of Ranvir Sena, a private army of landlords.
Khaira village is hardly 8 kms away from Shankerbigha, the site of Monday’s carnage.
