In May 2021 the first part was viral wrongly claimed as from West Bengal which was debunked by The Quint.

They contacted the Investigating Officer of the case, Sanjay Raghav, who told us that the brawl happened in Sikri village recently.

He said that the lineman had gone to Sikri to fix a faulty electrical line, but refused to repair a cable inside a residence without the Electrical Board’s Junior Engineer’s (JE) permission.

“This enraged the residents and led to the clash. We have registered a case at Bhopa police station and the accused would soon be arrested. The lineman has been identified as one Anuj Kumar. There is no communal angle to the incident rather it was a personal matter.” – Sanjay Raghav, Investigating Officer, Bhopa police.

This is the horrifying moment a young Venezuelan boy is tortured before being executed by one of the country’s ruthless gangs.

Sickening video, which is not being published by Mail Online, shows the boy tied up with a gang in his mouth while his tormentors talk about money and a house.

Brandishing a knife, a man then steps forward and slices the boy’s ears off before delivering several brutal blows to his neck with a heavy machete, killing him.

It is thought the boy was a victim of one of the country’s ‘megabandas’, criminal gangs formed in the violent jail system which specialise in kidnapping, extortion and targeted killings. 

The video came to light after being published by News.com.au, which attributed to the killed to one of the gangs.
