Jharkhand Mob Attack

Six police personnel were injured in an attack by a mob on Friday when they went to a village in Jharkhand's Hazaribag district to help a BSF jawan take possession of land allotted to him by the government, officials said.

A local administration officer and a group of policemen were attacked by a mob at a village in JKharkhand's Saraikela, where a crowded mela was going on amid the deadly second wave of the COVID-19 crisis.

A man died and another was seriously injured after he was brutally thrashed by a crowd on suspicion of theft in Jharkhand's Dhanbad, police said on Wednesday.

A 34-year-old man was beaten to death allegedly by villagers in Jharkhand on Sunday over suspicion of selling beef. The incident took place in Khunti district, 34 km from capital Ranchi. Two other men too were attacked and are injured.

Eight days after murder charges against the men accused in a fatal mob attack on a 24-year-old in Jharkhand were dropped because the post-mortem report said he died of a cardiac arrest, the police have reinstated the murder charge.

A medico-legal document signed by five heads of department of a medical college in Jamshedpur confirms that 24-year-old Tabrez Ansari -- who was attacked by a mob in Jharkhand -- died of a cardiac arrest that could have been partially caused by the severe trauma that he received.

Murder charges against the men accused in a fatal mob attack on a 24-year-old in Jharkhand in June were dropped because the post-mortem report said he died of a cardiac arrest, the police have said.

Hyderabad politician Asaduddin Owaisi has blamed right wing groups under Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, the ideological mentor of the BJP, for the hate crimes in the country. The Prime Minister, he said, is speaking against such attacks, but he has not been able to stop it.

A group of Hindu women in Jharkhand's Seraikela district have lodged an FIR claiming that some people sympathising with Tabrez Ansari, the victim of a recent mob lynching incident in the state, have threatened to rape them, police said on Thursday.

Tabrez Ansari was attacked by a mob, which accused him of theft and allegedly forced him to chant "Jai Shri Ram" and "Jai Hanuman" in Jharkhand's Saraikela Kharsawan district.

The Jharkhand police are focusing on the role of their colleagues and a doctor involved in the case of a 24-year-old man, who died after being beaten by a mob last week. A Special Investigation Team has been formed and two police officers have been suspended for lapses in the case. There is also indication of an attempted cover-up, as the dying dec...

The death of a man in Jharkhand following mob violence is not the first of its kind to occur this year. According to data from the website Factchecker.in this is the 11th instance of hate crime this year. So far, 4 people have been killed and 22 people injured in mob violence.

Eleven men have been arrested and two police officers suspended amid outrage across the country over the fatal mob attack on a man in Jharkhand last week. The police are on the lookout for at least one more person accused of beating 24-year-old Tabrez Ansari last Tuesday for allegedly stealing a motorcycle.

A minister in Jharkhand has said it is wrong to politicise mob killings - like the incident in Saraikela-Kharsawan district where a 24-year-old man was beaten to death allegedly for stealing a motorcycle.

Eight people, including a woman were arrested Friday and sent to jail in connection with the lynching of a man in Palamu and injuring two others on the suspicion of being thieves and obstructing police from rescuing them, the police said.
