Asif, was allegedly abducted and beaten to death in Mewat while he was returning home from Sohna

GURUGRAM: A 30-year-old gym trainer, Asif, was allegedly abducted and beaten to death in Mewat while he was returning home from Sohna on Sunday. Members of his family alleged Asif was the victim of a mob lynching and that his kidnappers had forced him to say ‘Jai Shri Ram’. Police, however, said this was not a hate crime but an outcome of enmity between two groups of youths from the same village. So far, 14 people have been booked. Six of them were arrested on Monday. One of Asif’s cousins, who was accompanying him and was also attacked, said they knew the attackers and there indeed was “old enmity”. Asif and his two cousins – Rashid (30) and Wasif (31) – were in a car. They had started from their village, Khalilpur (Mewat), and headed to Sohna to get medicines. The trio was ambushed on their way back, after they had entered Mewat. “A group of youths intercepted their car near Jacopur and thrashed all three of them. Asif died while the two others sustained injuries. They abused Asif and his brothers and forced them to say Jai Shri Ram,” said Maktoob Khan, the deceased’s uncle. Asif was found dead in Nangli, a village on the outskirts of Sohna. With tensions running high, a heavy police force was deployed in Khalilpur on Monday. A group of villagers also tried to block KMP expressway, but police removed them from there. PREVENTION SYMPTOMS TREATMENT Rashid told TOI they were returning home when a car hit theirs from behind near Jacopur and another car lurched to a halt in front of them, blocking their way on both sides. In the meantime, a third car hit their vehicle from the side. The car in which Asif and the cousins were toppled over into a field. “The group of youths started abusing us and attacked me. When I fell unconscious, they dragged Asif out of the car and beat him to death and threw his body in Nangli,” said Rashid. He said seven to eight of the attackers were from his village and were accompanied by some “outsiders”. “There was old enmity but we never imagined that they would attack us like this,” said Rashid.
