35-yr-old labourer beaten to death over donation dispute
Udaipur, Nov. 7 -- A 35-year-old labourer was beaten to death on Wednesday night at Banswara over a dispute involving a Rs.250 donation for a village ritual, police said.
The incident took place in Bassi Makwana village, where anger and tension spread soon after the murder.
According to villagers, a Pitru-Poojan ceremony was being organized, and each resident was expected to contribute Rs.250.
The family claimed that the victim, Dhuleshwar, son of Bhanji Meena, had already paid the amount. However, a group of youngsters returned around 10pm demanding the money again, which led to an argument. People present at the time intervened and sent them away.
Station house officer Banswara, Buddha Ram Bishnoi, said "Later, the same youngsters allegedly returned in an intoxicated state and started beating Dhuleshwar brutally. His nephew Kamlesh said that by the time the family reached the spot, the attackers had fled. Dhuleshwar was rushed to a hospital, where doctors declared him dead".
The victim leaves behind three young children including a 12-year-old daughter, a 10-year-old son, and a 7-year-old daughter. Their mother, Guddi, is now left to take care of the family alone, SHO Bishnoi added.
Bishnoi further said that upon arriving on the scene the police managed to control the situation in the village.
Based on the family's complaint, a murder case has been registered against Suresh Damor, Balram, Chhagan, Parmesh, and others. Some suspects have been detained, and the search for the remaining accused continues....
