Ranchi, July 25 (SocialNews.XYZ) Maoist guerrillas set afire six vehicles of a private road construction company in Jharkhand's Garwah district on Sunday, police said.
According to police, 10 to 12 armed Maoists raided the company's camp office in Ghghari village of Garwah early on Sunday, beat up the sleeping staff, poured diesel on vehicles involved in road construction work and set them on fire.
The six vehicles included two road-rollers and two JCBs.
