Son of Kanhaiya Lal who was beheaded, yesterday, by two men for allegedly posting content in support of suspended BJP leader Nupur Sharma on Wednesday said,"We want that either their (murderers) encounter should happen or they should be hanged to death. It's needed to instil fear in them." While wife of Kanhaiya Lal demanded that murderers should be hanged to death.
The gruesome murder in broad daylight reported from a crowded street in Udaipur on Tuesday has triggered tension in the Lake City after the murderers posted a video on social media claiming to teach a lesson to the victim for putting up a social media post.
