An 18-year-old boy and two of his friends alleged that they were beaten up by three youths when they refused to chant a religious slogan at a park outside their school in outer Delhi’s Begumpur area, the police said.
The police, however, said that the boy did not mention any such thing in his statement on the day of the incident and there were “inconsistencies” in his version.
According to the police, the incident took place on March 26, when three boys called up the police control room complaining about a fight.
