35-year-old Malkit Singh, a resident of Jahangir village of Kambo police station area in Amritsar, Punjab was brutally beaten to death by his neighbour Nihang Sukhdev Singh on Wednesday.
In the video which is going viral on social media, Singh’s family members including his wife and two children from his first marriage can be seen pleading before the assailants to spare Singh’s life.
Shankar was collecting bottles when two Nihang Sikhs got hold of him and accused him of consuming tobacco. They first attacked him with a stick and then with a kirpan.
NCW chairperson Rekha Sharma has written a letter to the Director General of Police (DGP) of Punjab to arrest the accused and submit an action report in three days.
