Kota:

Several people were booked here for allegedly thrashing a 40-year-old man with sticks and iron rods in front of the Baran city municipal council office, police said on Monday.

According to a video clip that surfaced on social media, Annirudh Nagar alias Jassu was thrashed on Sunday by around 7-8 men at Pratap Chowk of the city, purportedly in personal enmity.

The 44-second video showed Nagar collapsing on the ground due to the beating. The clip also indicated that Nagar anticipated the attack as he too was armed with a stick and held it in both hands in an attacking stance.

The incident led to the members of the Dhakad community, to which Nagar belongs, take out a bike rally on Monday and submit a memorandum to the Additional Superintendent of Police for the immediate arrest of the attackers.

The reason behind the attack seemed to be a dispute over a shop between Nagar and his attackers who are neighbours, police said.
