RAJBIRAJ: Families of those killed in a fatal clash in Saptari on Monday have vandalised an National Human Rights Commission vehicle at Maleth-2 in the district today. An NHRC team, including its spokesperson Mohna Ansari, had gone to monitor the situation as the district is reeling under the effects of a general strike imposed by the United Democratic Madhesi Front. Police have informed that no NHRC officials were hurt in the incident. They have been rescued and taken to safety. The vandalised vehicle (Ba 7 Cha 7479) is now being kept at the District Administration Office. On Tuesday also, the UDMF cadres had vandalised an NHRC vehicle that had gone to inspection. READ ALSO:
