A huge cache of arms and ammunition was recovered from Bihar's Maoist-hit Munger district during a police raid, a senior officer said.

Acting on a tip off, a joint team of the special task force (STF) of the Bihar Police and district-level officers, raided the house of one Uday Yadav in Satgharva village on Saturday night, and seized two rifles, three pistols, 56 cartridges of .315 bore, along with clothes, belts, blankets and medicines, Deputy Inspector General Manu Maharaj said.

No one was, however, arrested, Maharaj said, adding that miscreants might have fled the spot during the raid.
