Inspector Subodh Kumar Singh, 44, and civilian Sumit Kumar, 20, of Chingrawathi village were killed of gunshot injuries in the ensuing violence. Two separate FIRs were registered one for the violence in which nearly 80 people including 27 named and the other for cow slaughter at the Siyana police station. "Yes," District Magistrate Anuj Jha said in response to a PTI query on whether the stringent NSA was invoked against those arrested in the cow slaughter case. (With inputs from PTI)
