Horrified to see cow vigilantes thrashing innocent men in MP: Mehbooba

Srinagar: Former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Mehbooba Mufti Saturday hoped that the Madhya Pradesh government will take swift action against suspected cow vigilantes for thrashing two persons.
Suspected cow vigilantes thrashed two persons in Madhya Pradesh’s Seoni with sticks, accusing them of carrying beef, following which five accused have been arrested, police said Saturday.
In a purported video clip of the incident, which has been widely circulated on social media, the five accused can be seen beating up the two men.
“Horrified to see cow vigilantes thrash an innocent muslim with such impunity in MP. Hope @OfficeOfKNath takes swift action against these goons,” Mehbooba said in a tweet.
Another former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister, Omar Abdullah of the National Conference, said it was just the beginning and expressed fear that worse was in the store.
