Jalna police have registered a case against six individuals accused of assaulting and abusing a Dalit man, as well as forcing cow dung into his mouth. The incident is alleged to have occurred on May 23 when Parameshwar Suhas Hiwale, along with his 11-year-old son and Narayan Maroti Kamble, were returning from a weekly cattle market at Deulgaon Raja.
According to the complainant, a group of six, identified as Venkatish Bhagat, Arjun Singh, Ritesh Deshmukh, Shivraj Pichade, Yash Sarkate, and Somesh Patil, intercepted their vehicle and questioned them about a bull being transported. Hiwale claims the accused threatened him with caste-related abuses and assaulted him after he showed documents related to the bull's purchase.
He also alleges that cow dung was forcibly put into his mouth and that his minor son was threatened with a similar action. The accused reportedly recorded the incident on a mobile phone and threatened Hiwale and his family with dire consequences if they reported the incident to the police. Police Inspector Santosh Sable informed that the case has been registered under various provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.
