New Delhi, Oct 16, 2014: In what is suspected to be a hate crime, more than seven locals armed with bats and sticks brutally assaulted two boys from the Northeast in Sikanderpur, Gurgaon, late last night.
The
attack began around midnight and continued until 3 a.m. Mr. Awang and Mr.
Chester, the victims, were severely beaten, and their hair was forcibly cut off
by the assailants. Both sustained serious injuries.
According
to the victims, the attackers threatened them, saying, “If you were from
Manipur, we would kill you.” Before releasing them, the attackers warned, “Tell
your Northeast people to leave Sikanderpur, or you will all face the
consequences.”
As of
now, no FIR has been filed, and no arrests have been made.
