Patna, Oct 1 (The Bihar Post/ IBNS): Angry villagers lynched a criminal accused of shooting dead RJD leader Minhaj Khan in Siwan district of Bihar last night.

Khan, who was district general secretary of the RJD (Youth Wing), was shot dead in July last. He was considered close to Mohammad Shahabuddin.

According to reports in the local media, the local villagers tried to catch the main accused Raja Khan after they saw him going on a bike but seeing them chasing, he jumped into a pond.

Subsequently, he took shelter in the house of a local villager but the police surrounded the house from all sides.

Reports said when the police asked him to surrender, he resorted to firing on the police. One of the bullets later hit a village as a result of which the local villagers went berserk.

Angry villagers then broke open the house, caught the accused and beat him to death. The victim was wanted in many cases lodged with the police.
