A cattle trader was found dead with his throat slit in Jharkhand's Giridih district on Monday.
Police said the body of Rameshwar Mia, 55, was found on a highway. A hand-written pamphlet found at the site dubbed him a 'dalal' (middleman).
The victim's family told the police that he was missing since Sunday evening.
Police suspect that Maoists could have killed him presuming him to be a "police informer".
