A shocking case of mob violence has emerged from the Bopal police station area, where a man was brutally assaulted on suspicion of theft near Vibhusha Bungalows in Ghuma village. The victim, identified as Indravadan Parmar, was reportedly attacked by a group of individuals before being brought to the police station by three men around 6 pm on Thursday.

According to police officials, the incident unfolded when Parmar was accused of stealing in the vicinity. Eyewitnesses reported that a mob descended upon him, subjecting him to a severe beating. In a desperate attempt to seek help, the three men who had intervened transported Parmar to the police station, where they hoped he would receive assistance.

Upon arrival at the station, however, Parmar's condition rapidly deteriorated. Authorities, recognising the urgency of the situation, immediately arranged for him to be taken to the Community Health Centre (CHC) in Sanand for medical attention. Tragically, the on-duty doctor pronounced him dead upon arrival, raising serious concerns about the circumstances surrounding his death.

In the wake of this incident, legal procedures were promptly initiated. A videography inquest was conducted in the presence of the Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM), and forensic post-mortem examinations have been undertaken to ascertain the cause of death. The police have also commenced legal proceedings against those responsible for the assault, with a focus on identifying and apprehending the individuals involved.

Bopal Police Inspector B T Gohil said, “We have initiated legal proceedings in this matter and have begun an investigation against those responsible for the assault.”

He emphasised the importance of holding accountable those who take the law into their own hands, reiterating that mob violence and vigilante justice will not be tolerated under any circumstances.
