Jagatsinghpur: As illegal liquor trade is flourishing in Odisha’s Jagatsinghpur district, a violent clash broke out between two groups over bootleggers at Baragola Garual under Sadar police limits,  leaving five people injured.

The condition of two injured persons is stated to be critical after the clash that took place on Monday night.

Sources said two groups of people engaged in illegal liquor trade in the village were at loggerheads over business rivalry. They had fought several times in the past.

Members of one group stormed into the house of Yudhisthir Behera and made an organised attack on him, his brothers and other members of his family with sharp edged weapons late Monday night. This led to a clash, leaving five from both sides injured.

The injured were rushed to the district headquarters hospital where the condition of two persons was stated to be critical, sources of the hospital said.
