Here is why -
After raiding an NGO office and holding the staff at gunpoint in Wuji, the Mundari cattle keepers later moved to the villages and started shooting at the local people in the area, which killed four civilians, including the executive chief. According to information from one of the sources on the ground, the situation remains tense between the host community and the armed Mundari cattle keepers, who refuse to move their animals out of the area.
