Activists of the banned CPI (Maoist) blew up railway tracks at Masudan station
in Munger district, disrupting train movement on the Jamalpur-Malda section.
Superintendent of Railway Police (Jamalpur) Vimal Kumar on Tuesday said that
over 100 ultras detonated dynamites to damage a stretch of track in both up and
down lines near the outer signal last night.
Rail traffic was disrupted for several hours in the Jamalpur-Malda section
because of the explosion, he said.
The ultras later stormed the house of one Subuk Paswan at Batwari village in
Munger district and killed him by slitting his throat with a sharp weapon.
