Ranchi, April 27 The body of a BJP leader was found hanging from a tree in Jharkhand on Thursday, an official said.

The deceased has been identified as Pramod Singh, a resident of Manatu block in Palamu district.

Pramod, the president of the BJP's Scheduled Tribe Morcha cell had left home at 5 p.m. on Wednesday and was missing since then.

Singh's family alleged that he was murdered over a land dispute.

After this, the Semri-Manatu main road was blocked with the protestors demanding the arrest of the culprits.

After receiving information about the murder and road blockade, BJP MLA from Panki, Shashi Bhushan Mehta, Lesliganj's SDPO Alok Tuti and Manatu police station in-charge Alok Dubey reached the spot and tried to pacify the people.

The relatives have also accused the Manatu police station in-charge of negligence.

A family member said: "When Pramod Singh did not return home at night, I went to the police station and informed about it, but the police scolded me and sent me back. Had the police acted in time, Singh would have been saved."
