Mob In India Allegedly Beats Muslim To Death Over Rumors That He Ate Beef

BISARA, India (AP) — Indian police arrested eight people and were searching for two more Wednesday after villagers allegedly beat a Muslim farmer to death and severely injured his son upon hearing rumors that the family was eating beef — a taboo for many among India's majority Hindu population. The mob of about 60 Hindus became incensed when a temple announced that the family had been slaughtering cows and storing the beef in their house in Bisara, a village about 45 kilometers (25 miles) southeast of the Indian capital of New Delhi, said District Magistrate Nagendra Pratap Singh. He said the mob dragged 52-year-old Mohammad Akhlaq and his son from their home Monday night and beat them with sticks and bricks. Akhlaq was declared dead at a nearby hospital, while his son was being treated for serious injuries.
