On July 11, seven Dalit youths, including the four, were beaten up in their the village when the cow vigilantes found them skinning a dead cow. The attackers alleged that the Dalits were
also responsible for the cow slaughter. Although the victims told them that they had only skinned a dead cow for leather and had not slaughtered it, the accused took four of them to nearby
Una town and once again thrashed them with sticks and iron rods after tying them with a vehicle. They were also paraded half-naked on the road in full public view. After a video of the
incident went viral, it sparked off violent protests across Gujarat. Many political leaders, including Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and JD(U)
leader Sharad Yadav, paid visit to the village. Police have so far arrested 16 people in this connection and the state government handed over the investigation to CID and notified creation
of a designated court to carry out the case. Chief Minister Anandiben Patel has also announced compensation to the victims.
