Group of youngsters urinate on Dalit boy's face after thrashing him over cricket fight in Lucknow
LUCKNOW: A group of youngsters allegedly urinated on the face of an 18-year-old dalit boy after a brawl during a cricket match turned violent.
Though the incident occurred on January 13 an FIR was lodged on Tuesday evening after the victim's father Sandeep Kumar Rawat, a daily wage labourer, submitted a written complaint to the police.
The main accused, identified as Fardeen and his 25-30 accomplices were booked under IPC sections 506 (criminal intimidation), 504 (insult), 323 (voluntarily causing hurt) and 147 (rioting). The SC/ST Act was also invoked against the accused.
Rawat, a resident of Chadan village in Indiranagar, stated in his FIR that his son Lucky, 18, who works as an AC mechanic, had gone to play cricket near Khurram Nagar along with his friends.
"During their match someone hit a big shot and the ball landed in the area where some other youngsters were playing. When Lucky went there to take the ball the youngsters of that group refused to hand it over to him. Soon a verbal spat ensued and my son tried to escape from the spot.
But they caught him and started thrashing him severely. They also passed casteist remarks against him."
Rawat further said that his son, somehow, managed to escape from their clutches and reached home, but he did not disclose the incident to them. The same day Lucky was again intercepted by the youths who once again beat him. "This time he told the entire episode to us. We were discussing the matter when the same group again reached there and tried to drag my son outside the house. However, my neighbours came to our rescue, forcing the miscreants to flee from the spot." Rawat added.
The complainant told the police that the urination incident took place the next day when his son had gone to Takrohi to take his sister back from school. Here the miscreants once again intercepted him near Kanausa.
"They thrashed him until he turned unconscious. They also urinated on his face. Since then he has been in trauma and is not stepping out," Rawat added.
Deputy commissioner of police, north zone, Qasim Abidi said that the matter is being probed and action would be taken against the miscreants.

Bengaluru: Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Minister Priyank Kharge has alleged involvement of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) in a money transfer network at global level.
Posting his allegation on his personal ‘X’ account on Saturday morning, Kharge said that he was referring to an issue that had not been dealt with decisively by Indian media houses.
“Here is a crucial story that the Indian media will never touch,” the minister has said, and clarified, “This so-called “body of individuals” has built a global network of over 2,500 affiliated organisations. Through these fronts, the RSS collects “guru dakshina” to fuel its divisive agenda. (sic)”
Kharge has further alleged, “The world’s largest NGO is running amok, laundering money and evading accountability.”
The minister added, “Here is a map of their organisational architecture of their “Vichar Parivaar.” https://rssproject.caravanmagazine.in / @thecaravanindia”
