A group of people in Pabhoi village in Sonitpur district, about 210 km from here, nabbed the two militants and attacked them with sharp weapons.

“The two apparently came to the village to collect extortion money from a businessman when villagers challenged them. The militants tried to flee but were caught and beaten to death,” a police official said.

“It appears the two were lynched with some sharp and crude weapon,” he said. The area is considered an NDFB stronghold.
