PATNA: Police have arrested three people from Bishanpur village under Babubarhi assembly constituency in Madhubani district for their alleged involvement in post-poll violence. The arrested people had allegedly resorted to violence after failing to rig polls at booth number 60 at the village on Saturday.
The irate mob had also pelted stones at security personnel and torched an SUV of Border Security Force (BSF) which was parked outside the booth.

Jainagar police sub-division ASP Shaurya Suman on Sunday said the three involved in violence were arrested by police on Saturday night.
Suman said the prime accused in the case, Ramashish Yadav, who is associated with a political party, is still evading arrest.
“It was Yadav who had instigated the villagers to attack the paramilitary forces and police personnel when they were leaving the booth after completion of polling. In the past elections also, Yadav had made such attempts,” he said, adding Yadav was trying to gather people outside the polling booth.
“An FIR was lodged with Ladania police station against 10 named people, including Yadav, and 100 unknown people. We are trying to identify all those involved in the incident,” the SHO added.
