CPI(Maoists) raided the house of a local CPI(M) leader and set a country liquor shop on fire at Kurni village in Purulia district, police said on Wednesday.
Around 30-35 heavily armed Maoists barged into the house of Phatik Mondal, a local committee member of the CPI(M), at Kurni village under Balarampur police station late last night.
Not finding Mondal at his house the Maoists took away the three two-wheelers parked there. They then went to a country liquor shop adjoining the house of Phatik Mondal and set it on fire, police said.
The liquor shop was totally damaged in the fire.
