In a video from Uttar Pradesh's Kasganj, where communal clashes broke out on Republic Day, a group of men are seen on a road, armed with guns, clubs and sticks. Several gunshots are heard in the short clip apparently filmed from a rooftop around the time a young man, Chandan Gupta, was shot dead. Not long after this video was taken, mobs would go on the rampage, burning cars, shops and houses.
Sources say the police are investigating the video to establish the sequence of events and those responsible for the clashes.
