Digal, meanwhile, reached the village on Sunday and informed that police beat the injured Bondaki to death and threw his body in the ghat following which they fled with the money, ganja and the illicit liquor. After Bondaki’s body was found, his family reached the spot and accused police of killing him and dumping his body in the gorge. “Though Bondaki sustained critical injuries after falling from the motorcycle, the cops, instead of taking him to the hospital, beat him to death,” the deceased’s wife Sukanti alleged further demanding a probe into the matter.
