Ajmer: A young man was brutally thrashed by a group of unidentified men in broad daylight in Rajasthan's Ajmer. The incident took place at a spot situated merely 100 metres from a police station in the area. The victim, Shaanu, was seriously injured and the assault has left both his legs fractured.
He was abused and assaulted by the men and left injured in a pool of blood on the roadside, but nobody came to his rescue. The passersby instead began recording the incident on their mobile phones. The reason behind the assault is yet unknown. The unidentified accused are on the run.
After the video of the assault went viral, the police swung into action to identify and nab the culprits.
In the video, three-four young men can be seen thrashing the victim with a stick and iron rod, taking turns, while he screamed and tried to protect himself. Another man can be seen shouting and pointing fingers at him, which seems like he was warning the victim for something.
The incident has put the vigilance of police personnel in the area under question as they failed to take notice of the incident happening just 100 metres away from the police station.
In another incident, a 23-year-old youth from Jharsa, Haryana was allegedly assaulted with iron rods at gunpoint earlier this month. He suffered fractures in both his hands after being assaulted by a group of 15 men near Vaishali Travels office in the area.
The victim, Nikhil, fell unconscious during the attack, following which the accused fled the spot. He was then rushed to the Medanta Hospital by his friends. Police suspected that a personal dispute might have been the reason behind the attack.
