[Hurriyet Daily News] Police charged 18 people March 8 after a frenzied mob stormed a prison and lynched a rape suspect in India's northeast, in an act of vigilante justice condemned by rights groups and politicians. Police placed in durance vile You have the right to remain silent... the men for rioting in Nagaland state, but it was unclear if they were directly involved in stripping and beating to death Syed Farid Khan, whose body was then strung up to a clock tower on Thursday. Tensions had been rising in Dimapur city ahead of the incident after Bengali-speaking Khan was arrested on February 24 for allegedly raping a 19-year-old tribal woman multiple times. "So far we have arrested 18 people for rioting and unlawful assembly," Inspector General of Police, Wabang Jamir, told AFP. "We are now verifying if besides being part of the mob they were also directly involved in the lynching," Jamir said by phone from Dimapur, 1,660 kilometres (1,030 miles) east of New Delhi. |
