According to witnesses, a mob of twenty-five men wielding sticks and iron rods attacked the Christians of Bherikudar early in the morning.

“I saw them beating a villager, Raj Singh Kullu, and hurling caste-based expletives at his wife,” Deepak Kullu, one of the victims, told the Telegraph Online. “When I sought an explanation, they started mouthing caste-based expletives at me too and accused us of slaughtering cows.”

The mob then dragged Deepak and six other Christians to Mahato Tola, a nearby village, and forced them to chant “Jai Shri Ram.” In Mahato Tola, the Christians had portions of their heads shaved by the mob.

Local police verified the incident and have already arrested four members of the mob.
