Aligarh Horror: 7 Booked For Assaulting Man, Shaving Head & Beard, Forcing Him To Drink Urine

Aligarh (UP), Sep 27: Seven people, including three women, have been booked for allegedly assaulting a man, partially shaving his head and beard, tying him to a tree and forcing him to drink urine, police said on Sunday.

Assault case comes to light

The incident took place on Thursday in a village under the Akrabad police station area, around 40 km from Aligarh, but came to light on Friday after a video purportedly showing the assault was circulated on social media. The victim subsequently lodged a complaint at the police station.

According to police, the victim, an unmarried man, was allegedly in a relationship with a married woman from the family of his sister's in-laws.

When the relationship came to light, a group of people confronted him and allegedly assaulted him.

A case has been registered for assault and inhuman treatment, while further investigation and attempts to identify the others are underway.
