Two Muslim men have died after they were attacked by Indian villagers who suspected them of stealing cows, Indian police said on Monday, this is another such attack on the animal Hindus consider sacred. Abu Hanifa and Rizyazuddin Ali were beaten with sticks to death by the villagers. Police in the northeastern state of Assam said that they had lodged the FIR and even arrested two suspects in the murder case.
The incident comes amidst a wave of rising tensions over the killing and smuggling of cows in Hindu-majority India, where the animal is considered sacred and its slaughter is a punishable offence in many states. There have been a spate of attacks in recent months by 'cow protection' vigilant groups, who roam some highways inspecting livestock trucks for any trace of the animal and in the same month three more Muslims were killed in India over the same issue.
