A man alleged to be a Bangladeshi illegal migrant was arrested for his unruly behavior recently at a temple in Devarabisanahalli village, Bengaluru. Villagers and locals abducted him after he marched into the temple premises while stone pelting and allegedly kicked the deity's idol with his slippers. The entire incident was captured on the CCTV camera nearby, which is now going viral on the Internet. Another video of angry villagers having nabbed the man and exposing his wrongdoings is going viral online.
In the CCTV footage surfacing on social media, the man can be seen out of control and abruptly walking in the direction of the temple. At one point, he starts pelting stones at the temple walls. As soon as he reaches near the entry of the temple, he surges in, and several commuters in the premises start running towards him to abduct him out of the temple. Locals alleged that he kicked the deity's idol with his slippers, which harmed the sentiments of the local people and devotees.
