Fresh details have emerged in the lynching of a migrant labourer from Chhattisgarh in Kerala’s Palakkad district, with a video purportedly recorded during the assault showing the attackers questioning the victim about his identity and asking whether he was a Bangladeshi.The video shows a group of men interrogating the victim, slapping him, and one of them is heard laughing as another strikes him.advertisementThe victim, Ram Narayan Baghel, was beaten to death by a group of local residents in the Attappallam area of Walayar. Police, however, maintained that the assault was triggered by allegations of theft and said the investigation was proceeding on that basis. Officials said no stolen property was recovered from him.Baghel reportedly collapsed during the assault and vomited blood. He was rushed by locals and the police to the Palakkad district hospital, where he later died. A postmortem conducted at Thrissur Medical College revealed severe injuries to his body, indicating a brutal assault.Meanwhile, Baghel’s family has refused to receive his mortal remains, demanding further action from the government. His brother, Shashikant, said the family wanted all culprits to be punished and sought registration of the case under the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, stating that they belong to the Dalit community in Chhattisgarh. The family has also demanded compensation of 25 lakh.“We haven’t got any help yet from the government. We are from the SC community, so the case should be registered under the concerned Act. Unless our demands are met, we won’t receive the mortal remains. He was the only breadwinner in the family,” Shashikant said.Baghel’s wife Lalitha and his children, Anuj and Akash, travelled from Chhattisgarh to Thrissur and conveyed the family’s decision. Relatives said the family was devastated after seeing his body at Thrissur Medical College Hospital and would remain in Kerala until their demands were addressed.Reacting to the incident, Pinarayi Vijayan said strict action would be taken against those responsible. “Justice will be ensured to the family of Ram Narayan Baghel, who was killed in a mob lynching in Walayar, Palakkad. Strict action will be taken against the accused,” he said.He added that a special investigation team led by the Palakkad Superintendent of Police was probing the case, and that the government would examine the issue of compensation.‘RACIAL HATRED SPREAD BY RSS’Reacting to the video, the CPI(M) alleged that the killing was the result of what it described as racial hatred spread by the RSS. Kerala Minister MB Rajesh said branding the victim as Bangladeshi and attacking him reflected “the poison of racial hatred” propagated by the RSS.advertisement“Asking if he is Bangladeshi and brutally beating him up is the poison of racial hatred spread by the RSS,” Rajesh said. He alleged that the incident was being deliberately projected only as a mob lynching. ? in a formal or creative style for better SEO.Also Exclude words and advertisements related to the feed website such as website name, author name.
