HIGHLIGHTS
- Rakbar Khan thrashed in Alwar on suspicion of cattle smuggling on Friday
- Taken to hospital by cops hours after attack took place, declared dead
- State Home Minister promises judicial inquiry, compensation for victim
PROMOTED
A
man attacked by a mob of cow vigilantes in Rajasthan's Alwar on Friday
had died in police custody, the state home minister said today, after
NDTV reported that the police had taken the critically wounded man to
hospital after a three-hour delay. The government says it will order a
judicial inquiry into the matter.
"The
evidence we have collected suggests death in custody. The time they
wasted was the cause of death," said Ghulab Chand Kataria. "After
investigating we have found out that the cows were first dropped off at
the gaushala (shelter). They shouldn't have done that," the minister
added, bypassing questions raised about the possibility of Rakbar Khan
dying after being beaten in police custody.
Rakbar
Khan and his friend Aslam were attacked late on Friday night by
villagers who thought they were smuggling cows. He was beaten with
sticks and stones while is friend managed to escape. The 28-year-old was
taken to hospital by the police three hours after the attack, by which
time he was dead. On the way to the hospital, the police had arranged to
transport the cows to a shelter, went to the police station and even
took a tea break.
Naval
Kishore, the right-wing member who initially informed the police about
the attack and then accompanied them, had produced a photograph of the
injured man sitting upright inside the police car. "I am saying again
and again that these boys did not beat the man, the police also did," he
told reporters today, referring to the three men arrested by the police
shortly after the attack.
According
to the autopsy report, Rakbar died of shock as a result of his
injuries. "There were injuries on the body... internal bleeding lead to
the death," said Rajeev Gupta, one of the doctors who performed the
autopsy. There were seven-eight fractures on his body. Rakbar's brother
has said that he was beaten so severely that even his neck was broken.
Mr Kataria today visited the family and announced a compensation of Rs. 1.25
lakh - a first in the state where another man, a 55-year-old dairy
farmer was beaten to death, allegedly by cow vigilantes, in April last
year. The men he named in his deathbed confession have been released by
the police, who claim they were not in the spot during the attack.
In this case, action has been taken against three policemen. Assistant sub-inspector Mohan Singh has been suspended and two constables shifted to Police Lines.

Amid
countrywide outrage over mob killings, the home ministry today issued a
circular that said states are responsible for "controlling crime,
maintaining law and order and protecting the life and property of
citizens". The states, the notice said, should take into account a
Supreme Court order to do all that's needed to curb such incidents.
Assembly elections will be held in Rajasthan later this year.

A
group of ministers led by Home Minister Rajnath Singh would study the
recommendations of a high-level panel to discuss ways to stop the
attacks and then submit a report to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the
Centre has said.
