STRANGE: AS INDIANS TORTURE A NIGERIAN MAN IN NEW DELHI

A heartless Indian mob has left a Nigerian man nearly dead after framing him and attacking him in Delhi. 

The Nigerian man was savagely beaten by an Indian mob who framed him up

 

A Nigerian man who was falsely accused of stealing has been brutalized by an Indian mob who allegedly wanted to steal his money. Following the emergence of a new video exposing the lies told about the Nigerian man, the police have wielded into the matter.

 

Here is how NDTV India reported the story:

 

"A Nigerian man has been caught on video being tied to a post and thrashed by a mob in Delhi, reported NDTV.

The footage caught by the channel was made after the man was allegedly caught trying to rob a house in Malviya Nagar in south Delhi, which has a large amount of African students. After the brutal assault, he was arrested and jailed but the perpetrators of his torture remain at large.

He was allegedly caught in the early hours of September 24, inside the house of Krishna Kumar. By the time he was handed over to the police the same day, he was wounded and barely conscious. People in the neighbourhood allegedly told the police that he was hurt when he fell down the stairs while trying to escape.

 

The video that NDTV found exposes the collective lie. In the mobile phone video, the Nigerian national is seen with his feet tied to a lamp post, begging for mercy as his attackers keep hitting him with sticks. Voices in the background can be heard egging on the mob and saying: “Get red chilly. Beat him harder…”

One man holds his feet and aims hard on the sole with a stick. “Forgive me!” the Nigerian national cries out, his hands folded, but it doesn’t move his attackers, who keep slapping him and demanding to know whether he has any hidden money. In one clip, he is upright, tied to a lamp post and in his underwear.

He was taken to the police in that state, with injuries to his head, face, limbs and back. The police say after he was treated in a hospital, he was produced before a judge who sent him to jail. But no one knew until the video emerged that he had been assaulted. The police say action will be taken against the attackers based on the video."
