With the death of one more person in Saptari on Sunday, the death toll in the clash between protestors and police has reached three in the district. According to eyewitness and local journalist Chandan Yadav, Dilip Sah, 35, of Rajbiraj Municipality-1 received a bullet in the head. Yadav, along with other local journalists, rushed the injured Sah to the private clinic of Dr Ashokanand Mishra immediately after he was shot during demonstrations at district headquarters Rajbiraj. Sah's condition was critical, according to Dr Mishra. He breathed his last on the way to Dharan for treatment. Along with Sah, two others including a five-year-old girl were also injured in the incident. Security personnel clashed with irate local demonstrators as the latter continued to stage demonstrations in defiance of a curfew and prohibitory order at different locations including the district headquarters, Bhardaha, Rupani and Baramajhiya, following Saturday night's incident. Earlier on Saturday night, two persons were killed in police firing after local demonstrators tried to obstruct the East-West Highway at Rupani and Bhardaha.
