Suspected to have been committed by Muslims – Police

The case registered by the police police states that the houses of Hindus were marked and the remains of cows were deliberately kept there. Since the area where the incident took place is largely inhabited by Muslims, the act may have been committed by an anarchist element among Muslims.

Third such incident in the last five months

According to local Hindus such incidents have happened in the past too. This is the third incident in the last five months.However, those who severed the head and legs of the cow and threw it have not been apprehended till date.
