NDFB militant lynched
2008-03-26
Kokrajhar, India: An NDFB militant was beaten to death by a mob while another escaped on Tuesday near Manas National Park in AssamÂ’s Chirang district, official sources said.

The militants had gone to Bansbari on Barpeta Road to extort money from PWD contractors who were engaged in construction of a PWD road. As the police fired in the air, local people grabbed the militants and beat them up injuring a militant. The police reached the spot, but the other militant escaped. The injured militant died on way to the Guwahati Medical College Hospital.

#4  Can't the US state department uncork some aid money to train these locals to deliver more efficient, timely and deadly beatings to militants?

#3  Interesting that it was AFTER the police arrived that the other 'militant' escaped.
