Lakhimpur Kheri (Uttar Pradesh), Oct 26 (IANS) A day after there were reports of men making videos of an injured girl asking for help in Kannauj, a similar incident has come to light in Lakhimpur Kheri where a 25-year-old man can be seen lying on the road in a pool of blood, writhing in pain and crying for help even as bystanders filmed the dying man.
In another viral clip shared by a social media user, Vinay Verma can be seen gasping for breath even as some bystanders ask him to name his 'killers' while others continue to make videos.
One onlooker can also be heard asking Verma to type the killer's names on a mobile.
Verma, who took out Rs 1 lakh from his shop on Diwali eve, was robbed by unidentified assailants who then slit his throat and left him to die.
The police arrived later and took Verma to a local hospital where he succumbed to the injury.
Doctors said that the man's life could have been saved had he been brought to the hospital in time.
Station House Officer (SHO) at Fardhan police station, Anil Saini, said, "The man was supposed to meet his friend when he was attacked by unidentified miscreants. We are finding out if there are any witnesses to the crime. The victim died before his statement could be recorded. We are questioning a few suspects."
The victim was the only son of his parents and was looking after the family business after the death of his father. He got married two years ago and his wife is four months pregnant.
Accordingly, the police registered a case under sections 302 (murder), 307 (atttempt to murder) and 34 (common intention) at the Adarsh Nagar police station and during investigation, it was revealed that deceased had a quarrel with the five accused classmates in their school, due to which they murdered him to take revenge, while they were going home.
Moving a resolution to this regard, Mann said that the main function of the Punjab State Vigilance Commission is to enquire or cause enquires into complaints alleging commission of offences by a public servant under the Prevention of Corruption Act 1988, Prevention of Corruption (Amendment) Act, 2018.
In spite of the pressure and demand to step down, the accused seer has categorically refused to quit, according to sources. The meeting was held in the leadership of former minister H Ekantaiah in this regard and discussed future course of action.
According to information, the deceased used to beat the juveniles and would often snatch their money to buy alcohol and drugs. The juveniles had been planning to take revenge for this. A senior police official said that the deceased was identified as Ajay, a resident of Labor Colony in Outer Delhi. The official said that the juveniles stabbed him repeatedly and fled from the crime scene.
The murder of Brar, who was a close relative of Canada-based gangster Goldy Brar, has triggered an inter-gang rivalry between the Davinder Bambiha gang and the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, leading to a spate of murders in Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh and the National Capital Region (NCR) Delhi. Brar was shot dead outside a nightclub in Chandigarh in October 2020.
It was alleged that the accused illegally collected public deposits throughout Odisha by alluring the people with various deposit schemes falsely promising high returns and did not refund the maturity amount and thereby cheated the investors of their due amount.
