Deoria: A wedding celebration turned into a shocking incident of violence when a man was brutally assaulted in Uttar Pradesh's Deoria district, after being mistaken for a thief. The incident, which occurred during a wedding procession from Gorakhpur to Deoria, was caught on camera and has since gone viral on social media.
According to a report by NDTV published on Saturday, the events took place in Tarkulwa village of Deoria, where the wedding guests had arrived at a local marriage hall. One of the participants, who was drunk, had wandered away from the wedding group and knocked on the door of a house around midnight.
