KATHMANDU, June 7: Darjeeling has been plunged into deep political mess after a Kolkata court on Saturday issued arrest warrants against 23 Gorkha Janmukti Morcha (GJM) leaders including President Bimal Gurung over a murder.

Judge Gopal Chandra Karmakar directed the Central Bureau of Investigation (CIB) to execute the warrants against the murder of Madan Tamang, a Nepali origin. Tamang was hacked to death five years ago.

The warrants were based on 'final supplementary charge-sheet' submitted by the CIB on May 29, media reported. All 23 suspects have been asked to show up in the upcoming hearing on June 23.
