Jaipur, July 6 -- A 25-year-old man was beaten to death by a mob in Rajasthan's Bhilwara district on Friday night after his car accidentally collided with a vendor's handcart in Jahajpur market, prompting police to detain three people and book 36 others for murder. Sitaram Keer, a resident of Tonk, was pulled from his vehicle and brutally assaulted with rods and sticks by a group of 30-40 people despite apologising and offering to pay for damages to the cart, police said. The incident has sparked tensions in the area. Additional police forces from 10 local stations have been deployed across the town to monitor the situation, which officials described as now being "under control". Keer and three friends - Sikandar, Dilkhush, and Deepak - were returning home after attending a function. Their car, driven by Sikandar, accidentally hit the handcart belonging to Shareef Mohammed (62) in the market area on Friday night. "The collision led to a verbal clash between both parties. Soon, a crowd gathered and started beating Sitaram and his friends," said Bhilwara superintendent of police Dharmendra Singh. "Sitaram was pulled from the car and brutally assaulted despite apologising repeatedly. The mob continued attacking him with rods and sticks, causing multiple severe injuries." With their car damaged by the mob, locals and Keer's friends rushed him to hospital on a motorcycle. Doctors declared him dead on arrival. Police booked 16 identified and 20 unidentified people at Jahajpur police station under sections 103 (murder) and 189 (unlawful assembly) of the BNS on Saturday morning....
