An unidentified gang hurled petrol bomb at Dish Home control unit office in Bhaisepati early Wednesday morning.

Lalitpur SSP Pitambar Adhikari informed that the incident occurred at 6:15 am this morning. Motorcycle-borne assailants sprinkled petrol on the transmitting unit of the control office and set it on fire, police said.

Though the motive remains unknown, police suspects that the Netra Bikram Chand-led CPN Moist might have carried out the attack on the television network for airing Indian news Channel.

No arrests have been made relating to the attack.

Police team on the site has been assessing the damage caused by the attack.
