Curfew continues in MP city after one killed in clashes

Devas (Madhya Pradesh), Jan 17 

Curfew continued for the second day in Madhya Pradesh's Devas city and 50 people have been taken into custody a day after violence between two groups left one person killed.

The violence broke out on Saturday in the wake of old enmity after some three-four sword-brandishing unidentified people attacked Narendra Rajoria at Shukruvariya Haat. They left him seriouly injured and he later died at hospital. Violence broke out between two groups later, police said.

Stone-pelting was reported in Malipura and Kharibawari areas and many vehicles were damaged, prompting police to resort to cane-charging. Petrol bombs and ammunition were seized during police raids in the affected areas.
