A day after a violent mob took law in their hands over alleged cow slaughter in Bulandshahr, that claimed lives of one police officer and another civilian, the families of farmers on whose farms the carcasses were found have alleged manhandling and vandalising in the case.

The villagers went from Mahav village to Chingravati police chowki where the clashes broke out.

Clashes broke out at Chingravati police chowki where a mob from Mahav village of Bulandshahr district gathered after carcasses of cattle were found on a farm leading to violence and stone-pelting by a mob.

Preeti, wife of Rajkumar on whose farm the cattle was found told The Quint that the police vandalised their house despite them denying involvement in the matter.

“15-20 policemen started banging on our gates around 1:30 am. They did not wait for anybody to open the gate and opened it by force and entered while hurling abuses. They wanted to take my brother-in-law away but we told them that he is a heart patient and the police will be responsible if anything happens to him,” she said.

Preeti further said that her husband was the one who informed the police in the first place.
