Patna, April 10 -- A police officer was injured after a mob of villagers attacked a police team in Bihar's Siwan district during an operation to arrest drunk men - despite the state's liquor ban.

The incident took place in Akolhi village on Wednesday when police detained one man and put him in their vehicle. However, a group of villagers quickly gathered, attacked the team, and freed the man from custody.
