Rautahat, September 2:

Cadres of the Janatantrik Tarai Mukti Morcha-Goit (JTMM-G) today shot dead a youth, Lal Babu Shah Sonar, at Jayanagar in Rautahat district.

The JTMM-G cadres led by district member and area no-2 in-charge Nitesh Yadav took Sonar to the banks of the Jhang river at Shivanagar of Mahamadpur VDC and shot him dead at 10 am.

The cadres accused Sonar of spying against their party and being involved in looting, raping and killing people, JTMM-G leader Nikesh Yadav said. “He was involved in the killing Dasai Yadav a few months ago. The action was taken after he failed to improve his conduct despite our request,” Yadav said.
