Two civilians, identified as Mohan Gupta, and Suraj Soni, were killed by Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres in an attack at Pipra Bazar in Palamu District of Jharkhand on November 23, reports The India Express. Two others identified as Golu and Raj Kumar Soni sustained bullet injuries in the attack. Maoist literature, including calls to boycott the Assembly polls, were recovered from the spot. Director General of Police (DGP), K N Choubey, said the Maoists opened fire in Pipra Bazar on November 23, killing Mohan Gupta, a former Maoist who had become a ‘police informer’. "Gupta left the outfit a few years ago and became our informer. He was also trying to build a career in politics. Though he was not in the fray for these polls, we believe he was supporting Akhilesh Singh Bhola, a candidate from an unrecognized party," he said. Choubey added. Local police said the Maoists reached the marketplace on two motorbikes and sprayed bullets from their AK-47s. Suraj Soni, a fruit-seller, was killed by stray bullets in the indiscriminate firing, while Golu and Raj Kumar Soni sustained injuries. In the pamphlets left behind by the Maoists at the site, the outfit's Madhya Zonal Committee asked the people to boycott the state polls. "We have seized the pamphlets, but are yet to verify the contents. Prima facie, it seems that Maoists were behind the attack," Choubey said. Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) district president Narendra Pandey said Gupta's wife Sandhya Devi is a BJP worker, but Gupta had no links with the party.
