TMC worker beaten to death in Baguiati
A Trinamul Congress party worker was beaten to death in the Baguiati area last night, sparking clashes in the area. At least 13 persons were detained in this connection.
Six followers of Dera Sacha Sauda were arrested for allegedly damaging a petrol pump and a car at Chal village near here, the police said today.
The Dera followers damaged the petrol pump and a car on August 25 after the sect head Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh was convicted by a CBI court in Panchkula in a 2002 rape case.
The police claimed that the arrested Dera followers tried to set the petrol pump on fire, but failed to do so.
