A railway employee was killed by some unidentified persons allegedly over a dispute about opening a gate near Ballia railway station, police said today. The assailants hit Shailesh Tiwari (35) with a blunt object last night after they felt that he was causing unnecessary delay in opening the gate, they said. The GRP has filed an FIR against unidentified persons on a complaint by station master Raju Rai. "No arrests have been made in this connection so far and a probe is on," an official said.
