Pehlu Khan, a middle-aged man, had gone to buy bovines for milk.
Self-styled cow protection group members attacked Khan and his companions. The man was murdered in cold-blood.
Vipin Yadav, Kalu Ram Yadav and Ravendra Yadav--the three culprits have been arrested.
This horrific incident has occurred in Alwar district in Rajasthan.
The private militias, known as 'Gau Rakshaks' [euphemism for illegal extremist groups who kill innocents in the name of cow] are again responsible for the murder.
Khan who belonged to Nuh, Mewat had gone to buy bovines. On way back, the mini-truck was stopped by 'Gau-Rakshaks'. He showed the receipt that he had bought the cow legally.
But the 'Gau Rakshaks' attacked him, kept thrashing him until he fell unconscious. He was admitted to hospital where he died because of the injuries. The police didn't reach the spot until the incident occurred.
