Ghaziabad: In an incident on Saturday, members of the Hindu Raksha Dal reportedly attacked slum dwellers in Ghaziabad, accusing them of being Bangladeshis. The mob allegedly beat the residents with sticks, vandalized their huts, and set their belongings on fire.

The attack occurred in the Kavinagar area on Saturday afternoon, following a 24-hour deadline issued by the Hindu Raksha Dal demanding action from the Indian government against the alleged atrocities on Hindu families in Bangladesh.

A case has been registered against Bhupendra Chaudhary, the national president of the Hindu Raksha Dal, and 15-20 others at Madhuban Bapudham police station.

According to the FIR, the accused targeted slum dwellers who were later found to be from Shahjahanpur in Uttar Pradesh, not Bangladesh.

Chaudhary had previously released a video threatening similar actions against Bangladeshis in India if the violence against Hindus in Bangladesh did not cease. The police are investigating the matter further.

Baghpat (UP) (PTI): Police said on Saturday that three youths allegedly bludgeoned a man to death with a brick in Meetli village here following a late-night beer party.

Preliminary investigations suggest the dispute arose from a suspected illicit relationship, said police, adding that the three accused have been detained.

Police received information on Saturday morning that the body of Sonu (40), a resident of Dola village, was lying in the forest near Meetli village.

There were visible signs of severe head injuries on his body, and bottles of liquor and beer were also recovered from the crime scene, leading to the suspicion that a drinking party had taken place there before the incident, police said.

Superintendent of Police Suraj Kumar Rai said police registered a case based on the written complaint submitted by the family members.

Police sent the body for a postmortem.

According to the deceased's family members, two youngsters from the same village took him away at 8:00 pm on Friday, and he never returned home.

They said when they tried to contact him via phone, his mobile number was switched off.

The deceased worked as a street food vendor in the village and is survived by his wife, two sons, and two daughters.
