According to the young man’s older sibling, a different set of events took place. He said the man was invited to the couple’s home in Jagpura village, Kota district, on the evening of September 14. They allegedly then shackled his hands and feet and held him prisoner for the night.
They grabbed his phone, identity cards, and Rs 22,000 in cash, he claimed. He was allegedly beaten and forced to drink urine. According to the brother, the aunt and uncle also allegedly captured a video of the savage thrashing and accidentally put it online.
