Four persons have been arrested for allegedly beating a man, urinating on him and snapping his "janeu" (sacred thread) over a land dispute, in the Sakarpar area of Deoria district.
The man posted a video on his Twitter account, in which he narrated the entire story. He also lodged a complaint with the police.
Superintendent of Police (SP), Shishyapal, told reporters, "One Anish Chand Dwivedi has a land dispute with his neighbour Satish Yadav. On Sunday night, Anish posted a video on Twitter stating that he had been beaten up by the accused who also urinated in his mouth and broke his janeu."
The SP said that all the four accused have been arrested on Monday (5 October) and a case has been registered under the requisite sections.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
