Bihar turning into a mob lynching State
Despite its best efforts, the police has not been able to curb mob lynching incidents in the state.
Patna : Despite its best efforts, the police has not been able to curb mob lynching incidents in the state.
According to data provided by the police headquarters, 14 people have been beaten to death, while 45 people have been injured in mob lynching incidents during the last two and a half months.
During this time 39 incidents of mob lynching were registered in the state.
Bihar police headquarters is conducting awareness campaigns regarding such incidents in sensitive areas. Senior police officials have acknowledged that there have been no incidents of child abduction but people take to mob lynching due to rumours.
However, the police are sensitising people about such incidents along with giving a stern warning to those involved in the lynchings.
Rumours about child abduction have increased so much that parents are now in a panic.
Locals in Madipur Chitragupta Nagar in Muzaffarpur thrashed two women on suspicion of child abduction. By the time police reached the spot and saved them from the crowd, they had both suffered severe injuries.
A similar incident took place in Samastipur district, where a mentally disabled woman was beaten up on similar suspicion by a crowd. Some people from the crowd itself saved her from the mob.
Such cases have been reported from Patna as well as other areas of the state. A man, identified as Shatrughan Sinha, a resident of Sitamarhi, was beaten to death on September 9 in West Champaran district.
