Curfew withdrawn

PATNA, SEPT. 29. The Muzaffarpur district administration today withdrew the curfew completely which was clamped on Wednesday in the wake of violence following the recovery of the mutilated body of a boy.

Police claimed that the situation has since normalised with no untoward incident being reported during the last two days. The situation had deteriorated on Wednesday when people resorted to arson attacking government buildings and vehicles. The subsequent police firing claimed seven lives. Train movements, however, have not been fully restored on various sections of the Samastipur Division.
