A disturbing video from Uttarakhand’s Rudrapur has sparked outrage after an elderly man was seen being assaulted while offering namaz on Tuesday. The incident took place in Udhamsingh Nagar district, following which the police registered a case and launched an investigation. According to reports, Shahid, an elderly man working as a construction labourer in a nearby house, had offered namaz on an empty plot of land. This allegedly angered the manager of the Attariya Temple, who allegedly abused him verbally, kicked and punched him, beat him with a stick, and even forced him to chant a religious slogan. The accused later shared the assault video on social media himself. Notably, Shahid is a resident of Rudrapur’s Reshambari area.
