Kanpur:

A boy is seen pleading with folded hands: "Bhaiya, I don't have any money. Please spare me this time". He kept crying in pain, they kept assaulting him even more.

The distressing scene unfolded in Uttar Pradesh's Kanpur where the minor was brutally beaten and stripped naked by a group of men over a money dispute. Barbaric videos of the incident, shot and circulated on social media by the accused, show them slapping, kicking and dragging the victim by his hair. A clip shows one of the men trying to burn the boy's hair.

The torture doesn't stop there. The men then strip him naked and tie a brick to his genitals.

The boy had allegedly lost Rs 20,000, borrowed from two of the accused, in an online game and was brutalised after he failed to pay up.

He then tells them that he would return the money after he gets a job but the assault continues.
