A key accused in the Munger ASI murder case in Bihar was injured in an encounter while trying to escape police custody. Munger SP Syed Imran Masood said the accused tried to flee after the police car he was being taken by met with an accident.

Suddenly, a flock of sheep came on the road and the driver hit a tree while trying to avoid the animals," Masood said.
