PRAYAGRAJ: Kaundhiyara/Karchhana – A brutal case of mob assault leading to death came to light in Jagauti Bhaterwa village under Karchhana police station late Monday night. According to local discussions, the victim had gone to meet a woman, but the situation turned violent and cost him his life.
The deceased was identified as 21-year-old Diwakar Patel, son of Salikram Patel, a resident of Pahlu Ka Pura in Ghurupar police station limits. Diwakar, who worked as a JCB operator, had gone to his maternal village, Jagauti Bhaterwa, on Monday evening.
The Incident
Police investigations suggest that on the night of the incident, Diwakar allegedly went to the house of one Rammoorti Patel, a neighbor, after speaking with a woman over the phone.
There, he was confronted by Rammoorti along with his three sons – Dharmendra, Narendra, and Virendra – and two others, Santosh and Vimal Patel. Armed with sticks and rods, the group severely beat Diwakar.
Ironically, after the assault, it was Dharmendra himself who dialed 112 (the police emergency helpline) to report the situation.
Responding officers rushed to the spot and immediately sent the injured Diwakar to the Community Health Centre (CHC). From there, he was referred to Swaroop Rani Nehru (SRN) Hospital due to his critical condition. Unfortunately, upon arrival at SRN, doctors declared him dead.
Legal Action and Police Response
The body was sent for post-mortem examination to ascertain the cause of death. Meanwhile, the victim’s father, Salikram Patel, lodged a written complaint with the police. He alleged that his son was deliberately called into the house under the guise of a meeting and then murdered due to an old enmity.
Based on his complaint, an FIR has been registered against all six accused persons, naming them directly in the case. Police have already taken five of the accused into custody and are interrogating them to uncover the complete chain of events.
Community Shock
The incident has sparked fear and tension in the village, with locals shocked at the level of violence. Authorities have assured strict legal action, and investigations are ongoing.
