The police recovered the body of another child who has been missing for the past over a week in Kaimur district. The body was five-year-old victim was today recovered from a well.
A series of three incidents gave ample opportunity to the opposition to hit out at the ruling regime.

He added law and order situation had touched its nadir and the masses were living in a state of panic but the government looks least concerned.
Bihar opposition leader Tejashwi Yadav wondered over the “silence” of the NDA leaders over these shocking incidents.
“Why Sushil Kumar Modi who routinely talked about ‘jungle raj’ (while the RJD was in power) is mysteriously silent now?” asked Bihar opposition leader Tejashwi Yadav.
