Mumbai: Four Dalit men were allegedly hanged upside down from a tree and beaten up with sticks by six persons on suspicion of stealing a goat and some pigeons at a village in Maharashtra’s Ahmednagar district, PTI reported on Sunday.

After a video of the shocking incident surfaced on social media, police arrested one person while the other five are absconding, an official from Ahmednagar police said.

A group of six persons from Haregaon village allegedly took the Dalit men, all in their 20s, from their homes, accusing them of having stolen a goat and some pigeons. They were then hung up with their heads down and beaten up ruthlessly.

The accused have been identified as Yuvraj Galande, Manoj Bodake, Pappu Parkhe, Deepak Gaikwad, Durgesh Vaidya and Raju Borage, police said.

One of the six allegedly shot a video of the attack, which later surfaced on social media.

A case has been registered against the six persons under sections 307 (attempt to murder), 364 (kidnapping) and other relevant provisions of the Indian Penal Code and Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.
