The Young Communist League (YCL) cadres allegedly shot at and injured a CPN-UML member, 22-year-old Dev Bahadur Bista, of Gora village in the Baitadi district on July 6, reports Kantipuronline. He succumbed to his injuries on July 7. Relatives of the deceased said local YCL cadres - Karna Dhami and Ramesh Mahara - shot him over a land related dispute among locals. Meanwhile, issuing a press statement in Kathmandu, the CPN-UML denounced the murder of Bista and said, "The violent atrocities of Maoists, which are poised to form the government now, are yet to end and this will surely bring a crisis in the politics of consensus." However, the Maoists claimed that the two accused are not their cadres.
