Nalanda coaching institute owner, brother injured in bomb attack

BIHARSHARIF: Miscreants on Wednesday hurled bomb at a coaching institute located at Nala road locality under the Laheri police station area in Biharsharif in which the institute’s owner and his brother sustained critical injuries. They also pelted stones and created a huge ruckus.
According to the owner of institute, Amish Kumar, “Some miscreants thrashed him and his brother Nishant Kumar on Wednesday morning and later hurled bombs.” He said that a few days ago he had refused to admit some youth after they were found misbehaving with girls of the coaching institute.
Police later got the injured admitted to Biharsharif sadar hospital. Laheri police station house officer (SHO) Virendra Yadav said the investigation was underway and the miscreants would soon be arrested.
According to local sources, the entire incident has been captured in CCTV cameras installed at the coaching institute and it’s vicinity.
Road blocked: Hundreds of women and children blocked movement of vehicular traffic for over five hours near Soeva Pul on NH-130 under Asthawan police station on Wednesday causing a huge traffic snarl on the highway. They were demanding immediate recovery of a youth Madhu Yadav of Asthan village, who went missing from a nearby village, where he had gone to attend a function on March 6.
A kin of the missing youth said, “Madhu had gone to a nearby village to attend some function on March 6. But unfortunately, he did not return home that night and his cellphone was also found switched off. His family members then lodged an FIR on March 7. Police are clueless even after four days.”
The protesters lifted the blockade only after Biharsharif sadar SDPO Shibli Nomani assured them of action in this regard.
In the last one week, at least four persons including an LIC officer and husband of a Silao ward member were killed in different parts of the district.
