Former Bihar Chief Minister and Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Rabri Devi along with RJD MLAs protested outside the state assembly against the law and order situation in Bihar on Monday and said that "no one is safe" in the state.

She further attacked the Nitish Kumar government, while alleging that 22 murders took place during Holi and even senior government officials and police officers are being killed.

"If 22 murders happened in 2 days during Holi, then how many might be happening every day? They say there is good governance here, law and order is fine. Where is the law and order fine? If government officials, inspectors and constables are being murdered, then what about the common people?... This is Mangalraj; such things did not happen in Jungle Raj. Inspectors and constables were not murdered, this is happening in Mangalraj, where no one is safe," Rabri Devi said.

This comes in the wake of the murder of an Assistant Sub-Inspector (ASI), Santosh Kumar Singh, in Bihar's Munger.

Earlier, three policemen were suspended following the incident on charges of negligence in discharging their duties, including Mufassil SHO Chandan Kumar, a BCP jawan, and a Dial 112 driver, Munger SP Syed Imran Masood told ANI.

ASI Santosh Kumar Singh went to pacify a dispute between two parties on the evening of Holi when he was attacked and lost his life.

Based on an investigation report, a recommendation was made to the DIG for action. The DIG issued the suspension order based on the report submitted.

On March 15, Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Rakesh Kumar said that seven people have been identified as accused in the murder of ASI Santosh Kumar Singh, with five already in police custody.

DIG Kumar stated that ASI Singh had gone to pacify a dispute between two parties when he was attacked. He was rushed to the hospital but succumbed to his injuries during treatment in Patna.

"ASI Santosh Kumar Singh went to pacify a dispute between two parties on Friday evening... He was attacked. He was brought to the hospital, and he lost his life in Patna during treatment... A total of seven people have been identified as accused and five of them have been accused... One of the accused, Guddu Yadav, was injured when police shot at him in self-defence...," the DIG said.

He further stated that efforts are underway to apprehend the remaining accused. (ANI)
