Disturbing! Dalit Man Mercilessly Beaten For This Unacceptable Reason; Video Goes Viral
Home > News Shots > India newsWith the rise in caste-based violence in the country, a recent incident from Haryana has gone viral on social media where a Dalit man can be seen being beaten in a video which has surfaced reportedly almost a month after the incident took place.
The shocking incident took place in Bajana Kalan village in Haryana's Sonipat.
According to The Quint, the man, a 19-year old, reportedly refused to work in the field of the accused and thus got into a dispute with them. The victim's father lodged a complaint with the police following the incident. "When my son refused, they held him captive for around four hours in a room near their property. Mohit and Jitendra told him to remove his clothes, following which they assaulted him while recording the incident on their mobile phone. He was warned of dire consequences if he shared his ordeal with others."
"Fearing further attacks from the two, my son has been staying in Delhi for the last 20 days,” the complaint told NDTV.
Meanwhile, the police said the arrests were delayed as a complaint had not been lodged. The Haryana Police on Monday detained two people for allegedly beating up a Dalit man. Where they further claim that two residents of the village, Mohit and Jitendra, had beaten the victim because he had refused to work on their farm.
The police registered a case and formed a Special Investigation Team on Monday, nearly 15 days after a video of the incident went viral on social media, says The Scroll.
