Anant Singh's Alleged Involvement

The conflict reportedly began when Sonu Monu locked the house of Mukesh Singh, his clerk. Mukesh sought help from Anant Singh, who first sent supporters to unlock the house before arriving himself. A confrontation ensued between both parties, resulting in gunfire and one of Anant Singh's supporters being injured.

The atmosphere in Mokama has been tense since the incident. On Thursday, Sonu Singh surrendered at Panchmala police station early in the morning. This led to speculation about whether Anant Singh would also surrender or be arrested by the police.

Police Action and Accusations

Meanwhile, police from three stations have gathered at Barh for Anant Singh's arrest. The shooting occurred between two gangs in Nauranga village. Various claims have emerged from different parties involved.

Sonu Monu accused Anant Singh of firing shots during the altercation. A written complaint was filed at the police station alleging that Anant and his supporters entered Nauranga village and fired at Sonu Monu's house.

Mukesh Singh lodged an FIR accusing Sonu Monu of locking his house. Additionally, a case was registered against Anant Singh for allegedly pushing and abusing police personnel during the incident.
