Ravi Kumar (22), an engineering student from Ranchi was injured by a stray bullet when alleged Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres opened fire at Habbipur village under Rajpur Police Station in Rohtas District on March 11, reported The Telegraph. Rajesh Sharma, an active member of the now disbanded Maoist Communist Centre, had land dispute with a fellow villager, Lalan Singh. Rajpur block pramukh (head of administrative division) Rajendra Singh had, however, intervened and pacified the two rival groups. This did not go down well with Rajesh s aides. About six members of an armed squad of the Maoists attacked the relatives of Rajendra Singh while they were on their way to the local market. Rajesh s accomplices abused threw stones at Rajendra s kin and fired indiscriminately. Ravi, who had gone to the market to buy vegetables, was hit by a stray bullet fired by the Maoists. Bikramganj Sub-Divisional Police Officer (SDPO) Pramod Kumar said Police seized 15 cartridges of .315 bore and an empty cartridge during a search at Rajesh s house.
