Ex-CM's son and 16 others killed in Naxal attack

Seventeen people were killed by armed Naxalites in Jharkhand's Giridih district. Former Jharkhand Chief Minister Babulal Marandi's son was among them.
The band of armed Naxalites struck in the course of a local tribal festival's celebrations in Chilkhadi village, about 290 Km from Ranchi.
Marandi's younger son, Anupam, was killed in the attack.
Additional Superintendent of Police (ASP) Arun Kumar Singh said that about 30 Naxalites had mingled with the crowd during the cultural programme organised by Babulal Marandi's brother, Nunulal. At around 1 AM, they suddenly opened fire indiscriminately and exploded bombs.
