Couple beaten in Rajsamand village, video goes viral

Rajsamand: A husband and wife were beaten up and humiliated after the decree was issued by the village Panch in Kumbhalgarh block of Machada village.

The incident occurred because the woman had deserted her first husband and started living with another man following the ancient tradition of Naata Pratha.

But the family members of the first husband did not take the woman’s decision easy and decided to teach them a lesson.

The couple were tied with ropes and thrashed with sticks for two hours in the middle of the village. The panch also imposed a fine of Rs 40,000 on each.

The couple remained silent for six days but when the video of incident surfaced, the victim’s family lodged a complaint at Gogunda police station
