Cow Slaughter Accused Paraded Through Ujjain Streets

A dramatic scene unfolded in Madhya Pradesh's Ujjain on Monday when a man accused of cow slaughter was paraded through the streets in handcuffs. The accused was arrested after protests by Vishva Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal, who alleged that he had killed cattle and disposed of the remains in a sack.

The police later paraded him through the town, where he was made to chant slogans such as 'Gaay kaatna paap hai, police hamaara baap hai' (Killing a cow is a sin, the police are our boss). A video of the incident has surfaced on social media, showing the accused walking through the town with his hands handcuffed while police officers escort him. At one point, he is also made to do sit-ups in the middle of the road as officers stand around him.
